I think Peter hood has probably given McNamara a lead from above.

If the game at Odsal wasn't on Sky, we would have won that game.

Impossible to say for sure (as the ref had concerns over the Burrow and McGuire 'scores') but I tend to agree with that statement.

As for the best team always winning. The 1982 Challenge Cup Semi Final and the John Player Trophy Final of 1988 were two games where that didn't happen despite what it said on the scoreboard at the end.

The team with the most points always wins but not necessarily the best team on the day.

Was that Leeds v Widnes at Station road and Leeds v St Helens at Central Park?



I agree. I dont buy this 'best team always wins'.

Oh heart-break.

I don't care how many point Loughlin scored, Roy Powell was clear man of the match in that game. Possibly his finest display in the Blue and Amber.

If he'd kept a better eye on Hall earlier in the game, that may have helped.

Wasn't that the day a certain "me first", embittered former stand off spurned a couple of clear drop goal opportunities to draw the game by going glory hunting?

You know, the one who had a massive pop at Sinfield for doing the same in Cardiff?

Said individual will have been centre that day so I don't think so Andy but I could be wrong.

Like most finals Schoey played for us my recollection is he was pretty anonymous.

Yep, you're right, Peter Jackson was at stand off.

I agree with your point about Powell and even taking him out of the picture, Neil Holding had a better game than Paul Loughlin. Although, I seem to recall Schofield had an alright game.

Interesting that two players from that team went to a very early grave.

Possibly, although if the cameras got in the dressing rooms then that could have had a negative effect. It can be quite upsetting, or so I have heard...

very sad indeed.

But TVOC, he wrote 'FACT' at the end of his post, therefore it must be true and not open to debate.

You haven't even put 'end of' or 'HTH' on yours, so how are we to know if it's accurate or not?

Oh, and Dulls fans have some nerve calling us 'whinos'. There club appears to be a collection of whining bee-yatches at the moment.

Did you know that the collective noun for more than one whining bee-yatch is an "Odsal"?

Fact. End of.

H-T-H

Like it.

A collection of inbreds is similarly called a 'jungle'.

You'll be telling me next that a group of thieves is called a Knowsley

What would a group of Coke-heads be called?

Sl players on a nights out??

Fizzies???????????

Is it a Hock?

A Hock of snorters?

That's possible but I don't specifically remember them but I do recall he hit a post while attempting one to level the scores late on.

Lmfao!!!

I was in that corner of the southstand were said incident occurred..
couldn't tell....
however don't remember the lines man or in goal official being anywhere near the incident... very tough call either way...
My gut however said "no try"..
and that was good enough for me

I have just watched it on Rhinos TV and Sheriffe was nowhere near!

well that has made me smile emma...
thank you for that
