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.
