Can't count our chickens!

We caught Fev off-guard last year before they played Cas & Fax's season went off the rails after winning the NRC.

The lads ought to be professional enough though.

Eagles 36 - Swirrington Liovles 12

Can't remember, but he gave us a penalty, so it'll be for obstruction or summat.

I think to sugest we are a poor side is unfair. What we are,as with a number of teams in the bottom half,is a side which is a million miles away from competing with the top four or five in the championship.

I simply can't to be fair, there was a couple of knock ons given against us in that first half where the ball IMO clearly went backwards saying that the ball shouldn't have gone loose anyway as said far too many dropped balls.How long were swinton players allowed to hold down tackled players i won't drivel on about it its done now

All the best Marshy

Nope, he gave us a scrum.

Still not sure how the officials gave that forward pass that cost the Eagles a try. All three were nowhere near up with play. Some very pernickity penalties that helped to make this game one of the worst I've seen in ages. Having said that, the ref and TJs didn't keep knocking on, which was the main problem.

As for Swinton, I wouldn't say they were poor as I think that's disrespectful. They are certainly struggling to be anywhere near the top 5, but they aren't the only ones.

I've not been able to get to many games this year, but I've seen one very high quality game (Halifax in the league at BL) and three or four really poor ones, where Sheffield played at about 50% of their best and still won at a canter.
