What a Game

What TRY



Shame leeds weren't as bad in the final as they were last week

Not a try, but Michael Withers' drop-goal at Odsal was pretty hard to stomach.

GB V Australia at the City of Manchester Stadium in something like 2004.



Opening match of the tri-nations, and on the back of the test series the year before where we also lost all the matches in the last minute. We took a 10-0 lead at half time; Aus battled back and literally scored on the last play.



It was a case of 'here we go again'. Still, we had a good up afterwards in Mary Ds.

And your telling us this because?

DO NOT TURN THIS INTO A HULL KR/FC FUK FEST......it's a genuine thread that doesn't need you tw@s messing with it

Daylight Robbery



May 22nd 1971.



Wigan v Saints at Station Road Swinton in the Championship Final.



Wigan were leading 12 - 11 in the last minutes and Saints threw the ball back for John Walsh to try a drop goal from close to half way. It missed by a mile but bounced over the Wigan fullback Colin Tyrers head and Billy Benyon touched down.



He was at least 5 yards in front of Walsh when the ball was kicked, but Eric Lawrenson the ref from Warrington gave the try and to make matters worse Coslett kicked the goal.



Oh for a video ref.



Benyon came into the Stork pub in Billinge a few months later. I asked him (no I told him) if he was offside. He winked, then laughed. "The ref said I wasn't." was his reply.

Kevin Sinfield kicking it off the touchline in the CC Semi vs Saints at Huddersfield to win the game. The year Hull FC won it i think, 2005?



I felt ill.

18th July 2004...London Broncos 32 Leeds 32......last kick conversion from Liam Botham (Leeds player, loaned to London) from the touchlime to secure a comeback from 18-36 with 10 minutes to go......

Botham recalled next week....released soon after



Bitter and Twisted Leeds

like many other cas fans have said steel retchless scoring for london after we had come back from the dead and looked destined for wembley onkly to have our hearts broken.



at the time of the game it was bad the next morning after sobering up it was unbelievable.

ETs pommy test try . combined with cliffy lions

That's what made it worse for Cas fans as we all believed we would have beat Leeds if we had made the final.

as it was leeds would have beaten most teams that day.....lucky it wasn't you who had their @rses handed to them.
