Championship: Featherstone Rovers v Sheffield Eagles LIVE
Full Time
Thank you for your company this afternoon. We will have some post-match reaction later this evening. See you next time.
Full Time
Fev are still only out of the play-offs on points difference. And with Sheffield and York facing each other next week, Fev could get back into the top six with a win at home to rock bottom Dewsbury Rams.
Full Time
A thoroughly deserved win for the Eagles. You would not have thought they had lost their previous five games.
Around five minutes remaining. Fev are still three scores behind. This would be a comeback of all comebacks.
6-20
That is a sucker punch! It’s been all Fev!! But Jones-Bishop picks up a loose ball and races clear.
6-18
Ohhhh is that the game?! Jones-Bishop goes 90 metres!!! What a run by the 35-year-old! What a try!
6-18
Into the final 15 minutes or so. Fev trying their best to get back into this contest. They still trail.
6-14
Penalty
After all that pressure, it is Sheffield who have the chance to extend their lead with a penalty.
6-12
Fev, as you would expect, on the front foot but they can’t get over the line. Reynolds knocks on 15 metres from the line and Sheffield survive.
6-12
The Eagles’ defence is up to the test as they dig in deep to deny Fev’s 13 men in their first attack with their man advantage.
6-12
Reynolds does really well to tackle Jones-Bishop to deny a certain try. He gets him into touch. Sheffield so close to extending their lead.
6-12
