I think we can win, just not sure we will. We could've easily beaten Halifax twice this season and failed to get over the line both times, I just have the feeling it's in the players' heads a bit. Hope I'm wrong.

The club are running a coach so hopefully we can take a half decent following. Also, I urge everyone to conserve all their energy to get behind our lads and not focus on certain ex players who now ply their trade at Halifax. It's ran its race.

Come on Eagles!

Route to the Chamionship now confirmed, then.

All we have to do is win at Halifax and Leigh then in the final against Fev.

No problem.

Easy peasy then. Make my (holi)day and go win it.

Well played Eagles, absolutely destroyed Fax today! Hopefully Leigh will be a better challenge for you on Thursday.

Congratulations. For once its nice to not blame the officials for loosing a game , you out played us in every single department and fully deserving of the final result. Shame its only a short turnaround until the Leigh game. Good luck on Thursday and make it an all Yorkshire final.

We were awesome today. The best aspect of the win for me was the defence, particularly in the second quarter. Fax dominated territory for 15 mins or so before we got the last try just before half time, and we kept them out, that's what won us the game.

I'm not worried about the short turnaround, we did it last year and made the final. Let's hope we can do it again. See you at the LSV Charlie and co.

Pffft ! Everybody told us the short turnaround would lose us the game last year but it didn't.

I say drive straight over to Leigh and play them at 7.30. Then off to Warrington and play Fev Monday morning, 9 am.

Anyone else notice they sneaked a 14th man on at one point ?
