  1. I don't know if this was already posted, but "Big Den" died (Dennis Hartley), & I have to say what a kind man he was. I mean, seriously lovely (on the field he was a man that Malcolm Reilly & Artie Beetson admitted that they were afraid of him). The funeral was a "who's who" of rugby - apart from me & his missus, obvs. Johnny Ward (also a Wembley winner & Lions/Ashes-winning forward for Cas) said to "nah then d:c/<'ead, what's tha' been up to?". Whilst I'm composing a response, he points to Brian Lockwood (another serial Wembley winner & Lions forward) & says "& he's a dic/<'ead n all!" Never felt in such exulted company. Unfortunately within days, Johnny also passed away. There's a reyt front-row in Heaven these days.. ?
  2. I remember playing against the GB Legends side. "Vegas. Can you play in the backs today?" I said sure, who am I up against? I looked at the side. Chris Smith (Cas & Sts), Ikram Butt (***ds & *ev), Tony Marchant (Cas & Brraffutt - who never seems to age, so he's clearly a witch) & I'm thinking "No probs about playing in the backs again". "No no", I get told. We need you to mark Newlove". I'm thinking "Paul ****ing Newlove? are you out of your mind?". So I just kept racing out of the line to stop the ball getting to him in the first place. He then leaves the field as his knees are bad. And I'm thinking "job done". Then the coach goes, "can youse go in at prop? We're going destroyed in the scrums.". The coach has asked me... so I go okay, who am I up against? "Hugh Waddell". First scrum, Hughie goes "You seem like yer up ferrit today, Big Man!". My arms are still sore from packing down against him. And such a decent man*. * He picked me up after flattening me.
  3. A fine observation. Both from yourself & Gaybo. ?
  4. Heh. Deffo. Go on then, tell us how small it is. ? Bet it's shrunk since he went onion.
  5. Ugh. Mindbleach required.
  6. Yes. Yes it is. And thankyou, Leeds Wire. ?
  7. It is not. And you know it. ?
  8. Neither of you spotted me. ?
  9. Yes. Yes he was. Do you see? ?
  10. That was nice, that. He ran past each member of their team & then right along the touchline side in front of the south stand at Headingley - blowing kisses at them & laughing. Then Crooksie was given some gyp about his weight as he lined up the conversion & duly popped it over from the touchline. PS I've corrected your typo.
  11. Any news on Michael Eagar or Tawera Nikau?
  12. Jeez, this thread sucks. Boooooo!!!!!!!
