Northern Rail Cup, quarter-final, Mount Pleasant Stadium, Sunday 6 June
Eagles’ hopes of reaching the Northern Rail Cup final slipped away on Batley Bulldog’s sloping pitch. A three-try burst in the final minutes of the first half proved too much to pull back in the final 40 minutes of quarter-final clash.
There was a minute’s silence before the kick-off in memory of the victims of the Whitehaven shootings, which included former rugby league player Garry Purdham.
