Copied from Eagleraider,Hope you dont mind me using it FRONTLINE FAIR PLAY LEAGUE:
In the Co-operative Championship, Sheffield Eagles have finished at the top of the Frontline Fair Play Index and can now be rightfully called the best disciplined team in the Co-operative Championship.
The Eagles managed to remain in the Number 1 spot after conceding only five fair play points in their 29-28 victory against Leigh Centurions which was their last game of the regular season.
The South Yorkshire club finished a comfortable nine points clear of nearest rivals Keighley Cougars.
Sheffield will collect their £5,000 prize and specially engraved trophy at the Championship awards dinner in Manchester on Tuesday September 21.
FACT: Of the 29 games played this season, not just league matches (all competitions) Eagles have only been on the wrong side of the penalty count 6 times....
