Laidler Conference Weekend Round Up - 22nd & 23rd November

Solihull Barons made it "lucky 13" in a row at the top of the table with a 10-2 demolition of Deeside Dragons on Sunday night and they now stand 6 points at the top of the Laidler Conference.

Second placed Sheffield Senators picked up a morale-boosting last gasp win over Nottingham Lions to make up for their 5-0 shut out away at Telford Tigers on Saturday.

Widnes Wild would have to be the team of the weekend as they picked up a four point haul - beating last season's Play Off finalists Nottingham Lions 3-1 on Saturday and then seeing off Telford Tigers 3-2 on Sunday.  They outshot the Tigers 50-33 in what was only Telford's second defeat of the season.

In the other Laidler game of the weekend, Blackburn Eagles beat bottom team Bradford Bulldogs 10-4 in game that saw a bench clearance at the start of the third period.
