Widnes Vs Canberra


Recommended Posts


On the issue of exchanging the success of those years for financial security...

Of course not but it is the big problem of professional team sport in the UK, clubs building teams made up of players that they can't afford for more than a short period. Having said that, the club they were all up against at the time, Wigan, were the biggest culprits.

Whether they were the best attacking team to grace these shores or not, that Widnes team was something special. A shame they haven't been able to sustain a place at the top level recently.

Oh come on,let's not get ridiculous!!!!!!!!

Better than the Huddersfield "team of all talents"?

Better than Wakefield in the 60's?

Better than wigan from 1987-1995 when they won virtually every trophy going?

Better than Saints,Bradford Bulls and Leeds since super league started?

Better than the Australian national touring sides?

I could go on and on,but I think by now you should see my point,which is that your statement has a credibility rating of zero.

Ok, so i wasnt including touring australians, and was talking about english club rugby. My bad. However my statement stands and the rugby we played in the time we are talking about has drawn a number of respected people in the game to state that it is some of the best theyve seen. I agree with them.

I could also go on and on, but the tone of your response tells me you have an intelligence rating of zero.

I have started to upload the full game in 7-9 minute segments on my Youtube Channel if anyone wants to view them.

You can see the try's in context of the full game, plus obviously the Canberra try's

Do you have a copy on DVD?? Converted from VHS.

Yes please, my mate at school all them years ago lived in Great Sankey and supported Widnes, i thought why, but he always reminded me why.

If you know anything about BitTorrents, you could make it available to download.
