Sheffield Eagles became the first Championship side into the Challenge Cup quarter-finals after dumping out divisional rivals Halifax.

Two tries from Quentin Laulu-Togagae, added to scores from Tom Armstrong, Scott Turner and Menzie Yere saw Mark Aston's side through.

Half-back Dominic Brambani landed four of the five conversions.

League leaders Halifax responded through Rob Worrincy and Callum Casey tries plus two Steve Tyrer goals.
