Thanks for posting that. Some cracking tries scored there but, clearly, not the one that was in my mind.
There's no fun getting old
Great to see BV packed to the rafters, lets hope we can do the same on Sunday !

Yeah, I am too, on the same side as the camera though so not many opportunities for a freeze frame of a 17 year old me...lol
I reckon if I ever see gerremonside shouty blue mack lady, I'll see me in the same frame.

There should be a most memorable Wigan game you went to thread
I was at central park for a midweeker to watch Henry Paul pull their pants down with a load of mashed Leigh fans......that was memorable

Loving that idea Upanunder
There's been a few over the years.
My first ever game was at home v Wigan in 1988.
Belle Vue was packed and Trinity won 25-20
The patched up side, with Dave Halley on loan from Bradford "having" to play the mighty Wigan on the opening day of the season
https://www.skysports.com/rugby-league/ ... ield/20566
It was well worth the trip.
Absolutely no expectation of getting anything from the game and yet came home victorious.
The "Wigan Virus" game at Belle Vue
62 0 to Trinity: /www.skysports.com/rugby-league/wakefield-vs-wigan/44413
Mind you, we've had some pastings too so, shouldn't get too carried away !

| Looking forward to sunday feel like its a bit of pressure free game noone expects us to win but its certainly one we can.for me if we play like we can then yes we can win we just need to watch field (i feel he is carrying them a bit this year).
Depending on what time the ko off is but may get a bit of a warm up on sat as the academy lads are away to wigan,

It wasn't my first game but I was there, can't remember much but it was the first game of the season.
I was in my usual spot, on that plynth/raised bit, Wigan kicked off from the Benidorm end which was empty grass back then, Henderson Gill was 10ft away and shipped some horrific abuse by todays standards the entire half, and belly laughed the full 40, bit of a legend really.
I remember leaving at full time wondering that we might actually be some good that season
We werent...

Know most think he is not a good pundit on Sky ( like the others pundits) But you could not fault him as a player for Wigan or G B think as a legend he may come up a bit short but still a great player

Agreed, don’t think he maybe gets the credit he deserved as a player due to the fact he followed on from one of the greatest to play the game and his career was cut short due to the neck break. Nothing fancy but tough as they come and could play a bit.
Terrible pundit though.

Seriously is there a half decent pundit on Sky?, personally I can't stand him but the only one comes close is Wilkin, and he's only a part timer.

I thought he was exceptionally good when he first started and was always fair to us. Then for reasons unknown he started rubbish and being deliberately controversial, like a really crap version of Phil Gould. I suspect he was told to do it and now he just can’t stop.

Went to Oz in 95 and played regularly for Roosters until his neck injury. Quality player.

Sheet, Johnny T looking almost athletic....
He didn't look like that by 1985.
Don't know too many names on that team sheet besides JT and Keith Rayne, I think my first game was 1980 when my next door neighbour took me on a whim, the man of the moment in those days was Trevor Skerrett, I went to that one game in 80 but I was young, didn't know nothin and was not captured by WT till my independent teens in the mid 80's.
The commentator mentions JT was only playing because Andy Kelly broke his arm at Bradford the week before, I kinda think this is THE Andy Kelly, so that's 3 I recognize from the team sheet besides Henderson Gill...

| It's such a shame looking at that team when you compare to the team two years earlier.
Fletch and Lampi would still have been there I think but Lampkowski had a long term injury that cost us a lot.

| I was going to say 'good luck' against 'The Pies' tomorrow, but you don't need any luck. All the best and hope you win and I think you will, should be a great game anyway.

| at least we get plenty of opportunities for 'revenge' as we play Wigan at least 3 more times this season, 2 of them at home.
