  1. Yes, how many of that team where internationals at some point in their career. Those were the days when you didnt have to raid Hornets for your playing squad.
  2. Great book. An important addition to rugby league literature.
  3. Broncos dealing with captain and vice captain duking it out in the Valley after the Clubs fan day on Sunday…..all on camera.
  4. So Cornwall were ‘asked’ to stand down from 1895 cup because teams didnt want to travel there. Newcastle are now giving up the home advantage for their game v Wakefield and playing the game next door to Wakefield. How can the RFL get things so wrong?
  5. 58-6 1988. Burke, Atkinson, Foy, McAllister, Meadows, Walsh, Ford, Sherrat, Sanderson, Waddell, Casey, Graham, Warnecke, Subs: Irving, Hawkyard Some real bad refereeing that day.
  6. Please no…re renaming trophy. RFL will probably scrap the competition…or if not they would take joes name of the trophy once a deserving ex players name needs a trophy named after him. I wouldnt trust them with the name of such an honoured individual. How about naming the rugby ground Joe Platt field at Boundary Park. Obviously footy club would want a different name on football days.
  7. I would have thought you would rest your stars for next weeks BIG game. 1-0 barrow with 80 min drop goal off the post…and a few one game suspensions and minor injuries requiring one weeks rest. Have an enjoyable trip up there.
  8. Yes I agree, for those who get to the final a great day out. But the organisation of the competition is MM and is done with the sole purpose of providing league 1 clubs with one or two more home games…in the middle of winter. Poor hunslet…playing two top championship clubs…this is not bad luck (luck of the draw). There was no draw…administrators selected the groups. Obviously hunslets chairman has been drinking in the wrong pubs.
  9. You are speaking hypothetically of course ‘best’ second place team advances….even though the second placed teams will have all played different opponents so best really is a misnomer. another mickey mouse competition even though it ends at Wembley.
  10. Different…but not necessarily better. A Rugby league game without a programme is like fish without chips.
  11. And what a strip….classic hoops AND those shorts.
  12. Good luck to Mayfield who start on the road to Wembley on Saturday. After the long, and successful trip to Cornwall last year they have another long distance trip this time to London. I am guessing the draw for the next round including league one teams will be next week.
  13. I hear you….i have trouble working out how to make calls from my phone…and dont start me off on ‘smart’ TVs. Ive got three different controls and nothing works when the internet is down. Give me the old TV with. tube, one control and an on-off button. A second option would be to produce a list of what you have and posters on here could request your list by e mail. Good luck…
  14. Those sports make up for it with their drug problems.
  15. 20 game tour of GB and France….20 wins. The 6 point win over You lot was the closest they came to losing a game. Happy days.
  16. 100% was never enough for him. Condolences to the Oldham rugby family from your friends in red white and blue.
  17. No time for our lads to get the inoculations for a trip over the border.
  18. Incidentally I am almost the same age and contemplating what to do with my collection going back to 1930s. Always had the idea they would be passed to my son but although he is a fan he has no interests in programmes.
  19. If you have the time and inclination you might consider putting them on ebay. you would need to separate out the more ‘important’ ones from the rest but someones rubbish is often somebody else’s treasure.
  20. Just as I get to the last door on my Law Cup advent calendar too. Looks like Ill have to leave the Bentley in the garage get out my bumper book of rugby league word searches. Stat warm, stay safe…not too long before the next King Cotton Derby.
  21. Yes but we won despite, not because of the shirt
  22. Thats logical….make and absolute success of hosting the game at the participants home ground so now take it to the other side of the world. I can feel another call for RL world cup in the US coming……
  23. Its hurricane season in North Queensland ….the region has already been hit twice badly this summer with serious floods and homes destroyed with the prospect of more to come. Hope it will not affect their visit and the games.
  24. Congratulations to Rochdale’s own Vicky Molyneux who received the Rugby League Presidents award last weekend. Well done Vicky.
  25. Afraid not wozzer. No record of any first team appearance…though he might have been in the A team. There was a kevin Turner played in centres in late 50s pre the Fijian invasion.
