Sheffield Eagles 'need a win to keep season alive'

Sheffield Eagles’ season is not dead but director of rugby Mark Aston acknowledges only a win will do ahead of tonight’s clash with Dewsbury Rams.

Following the last round of results, the Eagles have slipped to seventh in the standings, and are now four points off a play-off position.

Aston says he hasn’t given up on a top five place with seven rounds remaining, whilst a trip to Wembley is still on the cards ahead of the 1895 Cup semi-final against Batley at the end of July.
