Fantastic, high shots galore, lots of biff and fantastic vocal crowd

Haaha the leeds coach smoking on the bench at wembley

The Leeds 7 looks like that singer, erm, forget his name. You know the one; he fell off a treadmill on live tv. Didn't realise it was still running, stood on it and went A over T.

This is the most free flowing rugby I've seen in years!

McRae can learn a few lessons from this

Salford part of the Steak Diane belt - classic footage.

The scrums in the Saints v Leeds Challenge Cup Final are amazing.

Wise words from the legendary David Watkins.

Maurice Bamford (I think)
D Watkins on commentary
And a former Salford player in the Saints line up .... Peter Glynn

The video ref is having a blinder !

Syd Hynes was coaching JJ.

Lovely to see them run from deep - makes all the difference doesnt it? Great viewing

Best bit for me: "Eddie Waring introduced you to places you'd never heard of before like Swinton"

I'll have that EB, but the guy who was havin a fag on the Leeds bench sure looked like Bamford ? Maybe I've had too much Strongbow !
Whatever, it's a great game and a joy to watch it

Dyl and Atkinson are class. No wonder they always took us apart.

Really enjoyed all of that, especially the game.
Too tired for the film, but a great nights viewing !
Cheers

Leo Sayer... Phew... Been racking my brain over that one.

Cant think of many Kiwis or Aussies in those sides! All homegrown lads.

WE'RE IN FOR A GRANDSTAND FINISH

That was Rugby League Porn last night, as much as we criticise the Beeb you can't fault them for this, dedicating a channel to the Greatest Game, nice one.



Now is this any sign that Auntie Beeb's move to this great City is having an effect already for RL? Just a though.

Well said K.O.T.S.

Thought the Waring Documentary was very interesting. A very forward thinking RL man in his day, caught up in the Celeb game in later life.

I feel that the dislike of Waring by a lot of RL is a microcosm of RL and its ties to its Socialist roots. Something that still holds sway to this day. A guy who got caught between his love of the game and his own career and always thought he was doing the best for both.

All in all, a great evenings entertainment.

The Leeds coach was Ray Batten JJ

And some other ex Salford players in the programme were-

Bill Francis-Ken Gwilliam-Steve Nash(the baby faced Featherstone No 7)- Johnny Ward-Mike Coulman-Graham Rees plus Risman-Barney Hudson-Alan Edwards-Billy Watkins and Emlyn Jenkins on the tour to Australia.

What an evening of the Greatest Game.

It was an enlightening doc re Waring, I certainly didn't know a lot about his background to be honest. Came across as a little bit of a visionary to be fair to him and it did appear that he was doing things for the good of the game in general.

K. Nine was quite superb too. He/she was nippier round the ruck than Alker has been for years



And the 78 final was spectacular viewing. Anyone who says that today's game is better than it was needs to watch this game. There was more invention and off-the-cuff rugby played in that 80 minutes than you see in 10-20 games of SL. Loved the scrummaging and the literally just luzzing the ball somewhere near to the scrum too!!

Was your grandad Ron Tierney then? who was also the match day announcer?

Now there was a Legend!

Missed it sadly does anyone know if it will go shown again?
