The Northern Eagles senior mixed team finished runners up in their division at The Championships.

The Eagles team went down 7-3 in their grand final against the Sydney Scorpions.

They qualified for the grand final after a 5-4 win against the Southern Rebels in their semifinal.

Heading into finals day, the Northern Eagles side had finished third on the ladder with four wins from their six games.
