FAX TIL I DIE: |
|
| Well done sheffield, you deserve to get there beating widnes, fax and leigh to get to the final is a brilliant achievement. You have been pretty consistent over the last few seasons . Aston has done an excellent job. Good luck in the final.

| F***in hell,cant believe it ,God they were up for it tonight,The defence was awesome,Not been as nervous near the end for many a year,that trysaving in tackle in the 74th minute was a lifesaver,Not sunk in yet that were there yet,Deep down i thought we could win,mainly due to the last 3 performances but you just had to look at Leigh only losing one league game and beating us three times,We always beat Feath once in a season We'll be underdogs which i like,I was there in 98 and we'll never be as bigger underdog as then,Bring on the final and thankyou for the congratulatory posts. The team look on a mission.

| Well done the Eagles, I now have split loyalties on who to support in the final with Cockayne being at Fev and Talaupapa at Sheffield, hopefully it'll be a good day out and a top quality contest!

| Superb performance from everyone involved. Terrific defence and great kicking for Brown. Good to know there will be a Yorkshire winner of the GF. Hope its you.

| I'm still buzzing, what an awesome night. Three textbook performances in the playoffs and if we make it four who knows what might happen. No one expected us to get this far, I know I certainly didn't, but the spirit amongst these players really is something special, they've bought into Mark's ideas and it's paying dividends.
I'm going to enjoy next Sunday whatever the result, we really do have nothing to lose, we've ticked a box now let's go and win the whole bloody thing.

| Cheers guys, what a win, I kept quiet (during the week!!) but I knew if we played like we did against Fax we'd win.
And for those undesirables who were giving me stick last night, £29.99 on Ryanair!!

*does the aeroplane uncontrollably around the room*
Seriously though, £30 isn't bad in the grand scheme of things, thought it would be more than that.

| This morning i feel like i have a hangover with all the singing and bouncing, but i didnt drink anything, its pure adrenaline (and still is)!
For me it was the best team performance in all the years ive been watching the lads, the defence was nothing short of heroic. Ill be honest, i had faith but i just couldnt see it happening. Even with 10 mins to go i still didnt think we were there, but got there we did, and now weve earned our day in the sun.
Its going to be an epic challenge to beat a class team like Fev, theyve been the best team for the last two years but on the day we can beat anyone, we have proved it.
No-one gave us a cat-in-hells chance in 1998, and that story is now history.
Will history happen again, personally, i cant wait to find out!

| Well which ever section we allocated at Warrington i'm going on the terracing. The lower parts of my legs are absolutely smashed to bits after jumping up and scraping them on the seats in front quite a few times in the last 2 weeks.

| Had to watch on telly due to work commitments. If I was watching as a neutral (thinking back) we'd got the game won when we went 14-6 up. However I wasn't neutral and it was nervy! The two tackles by Szostak in the corner and Taulapapa on Nanyn were awesome. They reminded me of some of the one-on-ones in th 98 final.
We have some very good rugby players who don't really get the limelight on them - Szostak, Green and Hirst in particular do a massive job in the forwards.
Mitch has probably had his best season at the Eagles. I was 60 miles away and Jack's half time team talk was getting me fired up, even though I couldn't hear it (by the way, Jack's failed attempt to get Ben Thaler confused about a penalty decision was pretty funny)
Any news on Dane Macdonald? He looked very uncomfortable when he had to go off.

| You could certainly even feel the togetherness of the team,Send shivers down your spine,especially the half-time talk and the celebrations after.They seem to be really on a mission,The half-time at Batley when we were struglling seems to be the turning point of the season because after the break of that game weve never looked back since.Im sure Dane will be fine,Sure a jab will do the trick.Hardmen these rugby players.

They do every year. But it's good because it gets funnier and funnier each year when they lose in the play-offs
On a serious note, Leigh shouldn't even be playing in the Championship because of what happened to Gateshead a few seasons ago - York should have been promoted back then.
I like watching the Championship games on a Thursday night because I find the game less structured than Super League so it's a better spectacle - it's just a shame Leigh are in it...
