Official Match Thread - York at Home : Tue Jun 19, 2012 9:57 pm  

One of the three bottom teams, we should win and comfortably. Fourth time we've played them this season, any strengths they have got we should have learnt to nullify by now, although they managed to get a bonus point off us at their place a few weeks ago, and do have a couple of decent players.

Eagles 42-10 York

Attendance: 858
MoM: Q

I'd be disappointed if we didn't get close to 40 and also it would be nice to keep York to no more than 2 tries.

Hopefully the pitch will have dried out more and will lend itself to our style of play, saying that it looks like more rain is ont he way.

I'm following ESO on this and will say

Eagles 40-10 York

Attendance: 750
MoM: Dom Brambani just because the people who dish these out may be fed up of giving it to Q - Q to get even closer to Iva Ropati's record by bagging a couple of tries.

HL to make a dramatic comeback and return to winning ways in the H/T draw.

I'm going for a more conservative 0-0

I could really do with winning the HT draw as I am skint!!

After the debacle at Leigh, the lads managed to get back in the saddle against Hunslet. We shouldn't have any problems beating York.

Eagles 36 York 12

Att: 950

MoM: Nozza

Hope the decent weather holds out.

Looking at the weather forecast for the rest of today I'm going to amend my man of the match forecast to Duncan Goodhew

Any truth in the rumour that the ground staff have been to Wentworth Garden centre and ordered 10000 dandelions in an attempt to make York feel at home?
