Sheffield eagles were magnificent that day but youve gotta pick out paul broadbent for a special mention, he ran his blood to water, from a hull kr fan .
sheffield deservred it no doubt.im a wigan fan i was there that day i wasnt gutted really just gobsmacked.wigan expected to win easy and to be honest the fans did aswell never underestimate any team.we recoverd well and won the super leauge that year well done warriors.
Same when Fev beat us (Hull) in '83, our players just thought they could stroll it but no-one gets to a final without being a decent side and Hobbs had a belter.
I see on some the comments that Sheffield Eagles got rubbish after this game and had to merger with Huddersfield,correction we were made to merge with Huddersfield because they were going down and the RFL wanted to save Huddersfield. On the field Sheffield were never relegated from Super League NEVER

Great day for rugby league to see Sheffield perform so magnificently. Immense effort from the Eagles.
Biggest shock in challenge cup final history?? What a game ..rugby league x keep well all supporters of the greatest game!!
Paul Broadbent was beyond immense that day.
This is why those of who love sport, love sport! When something that shouldn't happen, happens!
Beauty in visual form
Its a shame Sheffield got shit on a few years later making them merge with the Giants. Rugby League shooting its self in the foot yet again!
