First league game of the season, Sunday, 3pm, Don Valley Stadium.

Carnival day beforehand, get down early and take part, rodeo bulls, bouncy castle and sumo suits to name but a few things happening.

I expect us to win and win well. We should be confident having won 4 from 4 in the Northern Rails, and I expect Swinton to finish bottom two this season.

I honestly wouldn't want to be a Swinton player on Sunday.

Eagles 56-10 Swinton.

Important to keep up a good defence only one carless slip against York think we will nil these. Must concentrate on that because the season really starts in about three weeks when top sides are set to test us. 44:0

I'd be happy just to get the 3 points without worrying about nilling teams, Swinton have some decent players in their team and should not be taken lightly.

Agree with Brummie.

We've had some "easier" opposition in the NRC and the league will be much tougher. Saying that I think that this squad is better that last season's and has the ability to beat anyone in the division.

An Eagles win by 10 points

If we nil sides it's pretty likely we'll get the three points unless of course we go for there frequently predicted 0:0

I think we will win this one but i'd like to see a good game and I think Swinton won't be as big a walkover as some may think. Got some good wingers in Armstrong and Penny..

Eagles 38
Swinton 16

Great attacking performance, gloss taken off slightly by those two soft tries at the start of the second half, although the second one had a HUGE forward pass in the build up.

Hunslet got a bit of a towelling at Halifax as well today so hopefully we'll still be top this time next week!

Wonderful day out today - didn't sample the carnival though (looked fun), sampled some very well kept Ale at The Greyhound before the match.

Great turnout 1815 - looked like more than that to me - big applause to Tim and everyone involved in the promotion & marketing. Good atmosphere - hope we can get as many down to t'Lane a week on Thursday.

No disrespect to Swinton, they're not a bad side, but we really showed our attacking prowess today. Just need to concentrate and smarten up in defence for the full 80.

Hirsty's 2nd try was ridiculous! Had no right to go over from 10 metres out and 3 defenders with him a014.gif a014.gif a014.gif

Has anyone else noticed that Menzie seems to have cleaned up his tackle technique a bit?

Hoping to make it up to Hunslet next week - sponsored Dog Walk in the morning and a Friend's Birthday Meal in the evening - should just about sneak it and bring me Mam with me for a Mothering Sunday Treat. icon_wink.gif

Ches, was the Greyhound OK?

Do they have a room for hire - or hopefully even free?

Great in attack mode but now and then the defence seems to go to sleep. We can get away with this against the weaker teams but the better teams might well exploit this more than Swinton could.
