Wills Wingdings RL boosted their survival hopes with a crucial 57-41 win over Mafia Four Lions RL.

Manager of the Week goes to... me! I guided my Reality League team, Van de Ven Diagram, to 94 points and the top of the AllSwengland weekly table, with my main team, Victorious Secret, in second spot. Worst Manager of the Week goes to Mats Thorselius after Henry C FC could only manage 22 points.

Merry Christmas 🤓
