Official Match Thread - Fev v Eagles : Mon Aug 26, 2013 10:57 am  

Wednesday night 7.30pm ko live on Premier Sports.

Should be a belting game this between statistically the two best sides in the division. A chance to win the league with a win - anyone know if we'll receive the shield on the night if that's the case?

Would take a bonus point if offered now, however. I feel dirty.

Fev 24-25 Eagles. Last minute drop goal (Higgins)

Lets go and win the league
A bonus point would be great but a win would be marvelous its going to be a cracker with a few twists and turns

Regarding the shield if we win it i'm hoping it will be presented at donny


Fev 26-32 Eagles

In some ways it almost feels like a GF, It would be superb if we can win it tomorrow an unbelievable achievement
At the start of the season i hoped we could push for the top two but to be right up there is superb
Played 24 won 22 who could have asked for more

No predictions from me, though the bookies have you at plus 10 (and they are normally very close), but I can't see us beating you by enough to get top spot. I am just jooking forward to what should be an excellent game.

So guess I'll have a double on sheffield at +10 and Donny at -14 for a South Yorkshire double. That way (assuming Donny perform) I can't lose since if we beat you by +10 or more I'll be happy and if we fail to get close to that I'll at least make some money.

Hope you all have a good trip over.

Credit to Featherstone, much the better side and deserved the points. Kick in the balls to lose the BP at the death but that's life.

Didn't think we played particularly badly. It was a great advert for Champs RL. We missed Walker and Stringer badly.

Not over yet, unlikely Hunslet will get anything vs Fev but you never know. All we can do is beat Doncaster and get some confidence back going into the playoffs.

Still the big one to go for yet!

Just one of those days. A half back going off injured after about 2 minutes, another player off injured in first half - long time to play with 15 men. Ref gave us virtually nothing (thank god for the video ref! Did the ref actually call a try without going to screen?) and then the end. I'd rather that happened now than on September 29!

Also forgot Stringer was a big loss. I wouldn't have put Colton Roche anywhere near the pitch though.

Re: Official Match Thread - Fev v Eagles : Wed Aug 28, 2013 10:35 pm  

Interesting one with Roche. I tend to agree. Not saying he didn't put 100% in but it must be at the back of his mind he'll be playing for the opposition next season.
