  1. In terms of comebacks the '88 second division premiership final is up there - problem is we ended up losing. Can't remember exactly how the scoring went but we must have been 3+ scores behind. Then Steady scored twice, followed by Andy Bannister and Sykes to put us in front. I think Paul Lyman then (unusually for him) couldn't get over the line when it looked easier to score and Oldham won it at the death with a breakaway try under the sticks (Des Foy?). Quinny kicked superbly that day as usual. It was very warm and I seem to remember he said he'd lost a stone in weight during the game. (Rehydrating back then of course was for wusses only)
  2. I don't know if there are records on this but I wondered if we have ever come back from 18pts down to win a game away from home before ?. MLP - do you know ? Off the top of my head the biggest comeback I remember was the 2015 home game against Batley (Yes I am talking about all teams now not just Batley lol) Can anyone remember ? I'm sure I'm forgetting some....
  3. Just heard Ryan Verlinden is demanding £10
  4. To be fair imo Gorman is nowhere near SL standard - even though he looks a decent prospect so I can't see him getting in the first team unless HKR have an injury crisis. I might be wrong but I think he might be available to us most weeks from now. The problem is - would we play him at FB and if not - where ?
  5. Yep. Do we have any other type of lay-off when it comes to key players ? Anyway I hope its not too bad and he can return to his best form - whenever that may be. In the meantime I hope we can avoid playing Aekins in the halves or top 6 may be a pipe dream.
  6. Great try from Manoa wasn't it. Ironic that comparisons were made by Kev Brown on commentary with Ellery's try in the '83 semi final. He was certainly close to the touchline and I can see why Leigh fans were booing but it looks ok on replay. Was his right foot in, right foot out, in, out, whoa Wacokecoke....sorry..
  7. Yep. As were the last 4 games v Leigh in 2022. We competed much better than in those games.
  8. Very sporting Sir. Can you tell Lam that ! The best he could muster at the end of the game was "Our mistakes kept Fev in the game" For me Leigh deserved it for being more clinical when the chances came but with a bit of luck and those 'forward pass' decisions going our way it could have been very close.
  9. What - are we talking about non SL clubs ? if that's the case we're all ****ed
  10. It sounds like you think we are all in on this and we should be actively doing something to sort it. Believe it or not this is news to us. Its not good and needs sorting - we have to assume that MC has it in hand from his statement - but as has been suggested it does seem odd that some former players have suddenly crawled out of the woodwork regarding payments due 2 years ago. Plus of course as the RFL saying goes....... never let the truth get in the way of a good story about Fev.
  11. Difficult one this. Some very strange votes imo but understandably as it was definitely a game of two halves....... Well 39 mins v 41 mins anyway. Re the DR lads...........I don't understand why anyone would have considered Aydin for a vote from that performance. Gorman showed some potential and he spoke well at the end of the game. But I think he found it tough at this level and his mistakes could / should have cost us the game had Batley not handed it back to us at the death. Nearly worth a vote for his goal kicks but for me...... 1. Aekins 2. Addy 3. Springer
