I can only echo what ESO has said, much improved second half performance and a great boost to confidence. Brown was excellent and Hendo was outstanding. Q showed traces of what he can do, once he's got to know everyone and fully up to fitness we've got a player there.

For all Yorks efforts they couldn't punish our errors like Widnes did. the basis of a good teams there. Credit to Elvis who took his try well, as an eagles legend I'll let him off.

Let's push on, onwards and upwards.

A wins a win ,and thats all it was , York as relegation Fodder , and Seagulls did nothing to frighten me ,QLT dropped a couple of easy balls ,dont see what all the fuss about him is like Groom ,a one trick pony ,and why do your guys do all the try scoring celebrations?Probably because you dont score many ,you only got one against us ,again you will do well to make the play-offs , i think Batley will take your 6th place this year .

Anyone remotely confident in an Eagles win...Skybet have Eagles +4 on the handicap @10/11 or 5/4 to win outright.

Good odds.

Unlike you Jonny, I didn't lose money. Lumped on Sheffield, massive handicap, good weekend ahead now!

Got to say that the performance was what I expected, when some of the passes start sticking we'll be a really tough side to beat. Pat Smith looked out of his depth when he came on, looking around as though he didn't know the plays and I'm sure Henderson got pinged for a forward pass that wasn't forward, just to equal out the fact that almost every ball Smith threw was forward!

York looked poor, very one dimensional going forwards, shut down Thorman and they have nothing. Looking forward to them being battered through the season so Fat Woods (this is being pleasant, what a size! He had one of the coaches stood in front of him at one point, and you could still see him either side!) can keep bringing them in to train weekends!!

Have you ever considered the fact that an individual could carry excess weight due to a medical condition
or,more relevantly due to an injury sustained whilst working outside of rugby league.
Many years ago,before there were more activities for them,and personnel from the armed forces became injured,wheelchair users were nearly always overweight.
No worries ; there is only racism,sexism and ageism and the bleeding heart liberals ain't got round to fattism yet,so carry on.
Shame you are one of a few such rugby league followers,but best wishes to Mark Aston and the players at Sheffield Eagles for 2011 - especially the good friend of Dave Woods,Andrew Henderson.Seems the overweight chap knows a good player when he sees one.

Has Dave Woods got a condition that makes him slightly overweight or does he just really like Big Macs?
