Real tough game this off the back of the Wakefield match. Sheffield are always dead awkward opponents. Is Scurr likely to figure? We missed his go forward last weekend.

Hoping we inflict a backlash in this game. He a bit disappointing to go out of the cup then lose to a play-off rival in consecutive weeks.

I expect EOC to have a few changes for tis game. We've 7 players on loan so that means two miss out (which is a bit of a farce to be honest)

How far away is Baldwinson?

He's played some reserves. Wonder if he'll get a few games on loan in L1 before he comes back fully.

The loans thing is frustrating. We don't seem to have any continuity on the wing. The Aussie we've got from Hull just seems to be them "cleaning the stables" as he's certainly not up to SL level. Not sure what we're set to gain by taking someone who'll be off home as soon as he gets the chance. On the other hand Tindall coming in is a good move and I'd love us to make that a permanent signing.

One thing that has frustrated me this season is our kicking game. Other than the kicks we put in for Gill to chase we don't build any pressure at all. Not sure what we can do to fix this other than hope that Gaskell comes back early but longer term it's an issue that needs sorting.

I wouldn't go as far as saying this is a must win, but it is a good chance to tighten that top 6 back up.

If we're serious about being the best of the rest, a game at home like this we should be looking to win.

Hopefully some game management lessons also learnt from Widnes!

Sheffield have been far more consistent and strung together some decent form during the opening stages of the season. Their only losses have come against Wakefield (36-10) and Wigan in the Cup. After Wakefield, I see the Eagles as one of the top 2 sides in the division.

They've been going very well and it will take a well drilled Bulls outfit to try and stop the Eagles momentum. As others have said, game management will be key during Sunday's game. Mark Aston will have them up for this one after the late heartbreak they suffered in the final game of the season last year.

It has all the makings of being a good game!

Despite all the injuries and still only been able to name 19 players (two of which I doubt will play as they player for the reserves on Thursday and haven't made their debut yet) we should still be able to name a strong 17.

Cracking win in the sun. I didn't expect this but a great response from last week, and with Widnes only drawing too, brings us a little closer.

Played all of the Top 6 now and lost to Widnes and Wakefield(which everyone will likely lose too)
The only real negative is the York performance.

What a win! We made the Eagles look very average with our patched up team.

Massive stints from Doro, Lawrence, Fulton, Lilley and Souter. I also felt Okunbar went very well. I hope we can keep hold of him for the a few more games.

Always good to get one over Aston and that whinging bugger Thackery.
