so glad Fax won.....Shefield att: 671.
The ground will be rockin' - even without the Mighty Leigh !!
If the final is 'half' as exciting as last year's, it will be a great game.
Obviously I think Fev will win....but who knows ?
Congratulations on a great fightback tonight.

Couldn't make it tonight but I managed to check the halftime score and wasn't impressed, but good god was I surprised when I saw the final score! Sounded awesome! Up the Fax!

I WAS at the game and saw every minute.

Your assumption of the game is spot on, not impressed with the first half at all, but boy, what a second half display.

Congratulations, great second half comeback. Gutted we couldn't hold on after a strong first half, and had we curled the conversion over from the last try who knows what might have happened, but such is life.

Best of luck on the final.

Awfull display first half with hardly a set completed but second half completely different team and to come back against a good Eagles side took some effort.
This win was a must, lets hope we can kick on and get some form back.

Good to meet Robin (RFF),top bloke

It's a very fair reflection of the game.

671 spectators though. There were a lot more than that?

I would have believed it more if they had announced 1,671. It would have been a nearer estimate of the crowd.

Are NRC games a shared gate by any chance?

Re: Sheffield v Halifax : Sat Jul 07, 2012 12:39 am  

I did think they announced 1671 at the time, but wasn't paying that much attention (more focused on what was happening on the pitch!).

Re: Sheffield v Halifax : Sat Jul 07, 2012 12:51 am  

There did seem to be a hell of a lot more than 671 there but that's what was announced.
