What historical/legendary RL moments did you watch live?

[Hela Wigmen]

I’ve seen Challenge Cup Finals in every country it’s been played in. Which sounds impressive till you realise the answer is three. 

Saw Sean Long win all three Lance Todd’s, the Lance Todd shared for just the second time, saw Marc Sneyd and Paul Wellens win it back-to-back and a Frenchman (Gigot) win it. 

[Adelaide Tiger]

I was at Saints in 1992 .... the lasts time Cas won there in a league match.

[Snowys Backside]

Leighs first competitive win over Wigan since 1984. In super league and the big 50 ! As what is typical of Leigh, still get relegated even though not finishing bottom

Wigan being Manly in 86 was memorable too. Couldn't move in the ground that night !

not legendary but my first trip to wembley with my dad and uncle  watching FEV beat barrow in 67 sitting next to royal box   after  minutes of fans singing queenie queenie give us a wave she turned and waved to the crowd  

[Ullman]

December the 18th 1979, the last ever BBC2 Floodlit Trophy final. Hull v Hull KR and the crowd packed in so tight at The Boulevard you couldn't move in Threepenny. Straight in Silver Cod afterwards for several celebratory ales.

Fantastic night.

I was at Odsal to see Peter Fox's 'Dad's Army' team upset the Aussies.

Also the following week at Headingley when the Aussies got their revenge

For me it would be Wigan v Manly in 1987. A fantastic occasion that had it all.

2, Winning as underdogs at Hull KR in the last game of the 91-92 season and staving off relegation ... three weeks after Wigan put 70 points past us at Burnden Park.

More than one every GF in which Leeds were written off . No disrespect to to Sts Wire or Cas 

[Wigan Riversider]

Wembley 1989.

Chorley Lynx beating Leigh 2003.

Martin Offiah's 10 tries v Leeds 1992.

[Jill Halfpenny fan]

GB beating Australia in Melbourne.

Widnes beating Canberra.

Widnes beating Australia (last club side to beat them)

Offiahs 10 tries against Leeds.

Wigan beating Manly.

Widnes beating Wigan to win the league.

Wigan beating Widnes to just about clinch the league.

[Trojan]

I was present for many of the above, but one of my abiding memories is the 1988 Premiership  Final at Old Trafford, Widnes v Saints.  Kurt Sorrensen charging the Saints line, with only  Neil Holding between him and a try.  If there'd have been a hole Holding would have hidden in it!   Sorrensen was awesome on the charge.

[Wigan Riversider]

Nick Du Toit tackled Wally Lewis at Central Park 1986.

King Wally as always took the law into his own hands and retaliated.

Massive error.

The Kop let Walking Wally know where he stood by questioning his adolescent habits.

Still have the DVD.

Priceless

[Mister Ting]

Ellery Hanley against Halifax 88, hard to catch even on a 45% angle. I still get that sinking feeling, seeing Joe Lydon in acres of space, then the Hanley finish.

[Whippet13]

Many of those listed I have attended and plenty more too, but I will just add NZ beating Australia at the 2008 RLWC final in Brisbane, a game Australia went into as red hot favourites but lost 20-34 in front of 51,000. Every English supporter in the stadium, and there were several thousand of us, was 100% behind the Kiwis that night.
