EAGLES IN THE ASCENDANCY
JORDAN WEIR
WHITEHAVEN 6
SHEFFIELD EAGLES 44
LEL Arena, Sunday
IT was a dominant display from the Sheffield Eagles as they racked up their fourth consecutive win against a Whitehaven side who struggled to cope with the dismissal of Guy Graham in the 18th minute for a dangerous tackle.
Whitehaven had the better start to the game as a penalty marched them up the field in their opening set. A second penalty in the opening minutes gave them an opportunity to take two points which they duly did through Connor Holliday.
