Sheffield Eagles for the 2011 season. From the horses mouth and confirmed by coach Mark Aston. Awesome news. Appears Ben Black was wrong

Is this the Ben Black who couldn't catch Gonorrhea?

loved his celebration before, he is worth signing just for that..

Awesome try by him last night, ive absolutely no idea why Hewer went to the screen.

Fantastic news, superb performance and leadership from Misi last night.



One question though - what was Nistelrooy doing there? Is is swapping sports..........

He was asking Alex Szostak for hairstyle advice.

I had my reservations at first - but credit where it's due, he has been our best player in the second half of the season. Fantastic signing.

Possible obstruction by Menzie Yere.

However it was obvious from the replay that the Leigh player ran into the back of him and Menzie wasn't even looking that way. That wouldn't have been obvious at full speed.

The bizarre thing about that was he looked at it about 40 times before deciding that it wasn't obstruction.

I don't know about anyone else but it was pretty obvious to me at full speed.

The celebration was class and a touch of arrogance and look at me attitude,Which if youve got then why not do it!!!He didnt do much for me 1st half of the season,But after a4 or 5 games settled at full back he's really come into his own.I think we need more celebrations after tries like that,Who could come up with the best one?That will take some beating.

I agree with HL and EB - the first few games as a winger didn't seem to bring the best out in Misi but the switch to full back and taking on the skips role while Jack was out has proved that he is a very good player.At every play he was urging the guys on.

He has to be one of the best fullbacks outside SL - proved by the fact that other clubs higher in the table were keen on signing him.

I enjoyed the celebration (best since Bright Sodje was here?) but I understand Tubbs has made him buy a ticket as he was deemed to be occupying a seat.

That wouldnt surprise me!!!

Good to see our South Yorkshire comrades do well last night (and the ex-Dons) on TV.
Why not join us at the Keepmoat on Sunday, for 50p you can't go wrong!

50p?? I'd ask for at least a fiver to go there!!

Seriously though that's a good offer and well worth a look. Long live RL in SY

It's to try and entice a few people in on the day as there is a one of offer of a season ticket for £50 if it's bought on that day only.
I think it's important for our two clubs to get along as we some times seem to be forgotten by the rest of the RL world ie West Yorkshire/Lancashire.

You should become a ref.

He wouldn't pass the eyesight test. He can see things.

Might struggle on the fitness test though.

Oddly enough the Leigh bench were screaming for the obstruction and they were only 5m away from it.

They're from Lancashire, though.

Obstruction by Menzie? He was flattened off the ball by their player.

Clear 8 point try.

Maybe "Basil" (as in Millward not Expo) had a bet on? Assuming that he does gamble of course. Not sure he did when he was at Saints but who knows...........

I did shout that........

Anyways great try and celebration by Misi but refs could take a dim view of things like that, didnt a Warrington player celebrate by going down one stand tunnel and coming out of another only to get the riot act read to him by the whistleblower?
