The Longest Try


Recommended Posts

Can Robbie set a world record for the longest try?

Great to see how the World Cup can inspire people to help others.  

With the best, thats a good bit of PR, though I would say the Bedford team, theres, like, you know, 13 blokes who can get together at the weekend to have a game together, which doesnt point to expansion of the game. Point, yeah go on!

Robbie Dolan is a unique character. At 5ft 6in and of ‘Rugby League build’, it seems that he’s not the right size to attempt to run long distances. Never mind the feat that he is looking to take on during the World Cup in Australia next year. For 2 charities, (the Roald Dahl Marvellous Children’s Charity and Live to Give) he’s looking to run nearly 30 miles per day for 42 days, to arrive in Brisbane for the World Cup final.

Seriously, what happens if he drops the ball?

He starts back at the beginning.

Depends what shirt he's wearing.

This world was never meant for one as beautiful as me.

Would be great to get Robbie a few follows and twitter to spread the word (and donations).

Robbie is a  great lad and son of York. He has done his fair share of spreading the RL gospel around the UK. This latest effort is typical of his spirit and deserves as much support as possible. Hope to see him over there next month.
