Bit of an up and down season, thought we finished in a position below our potential in the league but the playoff run at the end of the season will mean I'll look back on this year very fondly. Highs: - Toulouse away, one of the most enjoyable weekends of my life and an excellent performance and result. - Wigan at home, ran them bloody close and just for a few minutes at 10-4, the boys had us all dreaming. - Featherstone away, best performance of the season in my eyes. - Leigh away (playoffs), never have I celebrated a try as much as when Bergin crossed, awesome, awesome feeling. - Barrow away (playoffs), brilliant performance, brilliant win, made the journey home fly by. Lows: - Keighley away, cold, wet, depressing draw. - Keighley at home, worst performance of the season, embarrassing. - Barrow away (league), took ages to get there, got battered by 50, took ages to get back. Horrible, horrible day. - Halifax away (playoffs), end of the dream. |

I'll nail my colours to the mast now and say that I want Featherstone to win the final and that's got nothing to do with the recent issues between Sheffield and Halifax. Firstly Featherstone this year have been a cut above the rest and really do deserve to clean up. Secondly I am a big fan of Daryl - he was a good player and in my view is the best English coach outside SL. He should be given the chance to coach at a higher level and has the potential to be a future England coach (however there isn't much opposition). A special mention to Batley and Karl Harrison too. What he's done with Batley this year in terms of getting a side crammed with more of less locals is brilliant. The Eagles season? We have done better that last year so we cannot grumble too much. Massive challenges facing a lot of clubs financially next year but I don't think we will be one of those in financial trouble. |

No you have put all that behind you now and have built a solid team, i hope you can maintain the same next year, I think the financial problems will hot lots of clubs who dont have big money backers next year and then a steady decline down from then. |
