Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.Bradford Bulls dislodged St Helens from the top of the Super League table with an emphatic 54-10 victory over injury-hit Sheffield Eagles yesterday, while London Broncos moved into fourth place with a 40-16 home win against Leeds.
The Bulls' second rower Sonny Nickle (fractured arm) and prop Brian McDermott (suspension) made comebacks, both scoring tries as Bradford clicked into gear at just the right time.
Leeds' chances of claiming third spot were dashed by half-time at The Stoop when they trailed 28-0 to a Broncos side that has now lost only one of their last seven Super League matches.
Paris St-Germain and Oldham, two clubs struggling at the foot of the table, were denied victories in frantic finishes against Warrington and Halifax.
An try in injury time by the Warrington hooker John Hough allowed Lee Briers to kick his sixth goal and condemn the Parisians to a 37-34 defeat. Paris scored seven tries to Wire's six but Jeremy Robinson converted just three of their eight goal-kicks.
Oldham's prospects were similarly dashed in the closing moments as Halifax's Australian threequarter, David Bouveng, scored his second try of the match and Martin Pearson added the touchline conversion with the final kick to secure a 30-29 victory.
