17 stone giant 1,281 Report post Posted May 3 It must have been a great occasion for the city of Hull to have both teams reach the CC final. I didn't know much about the rivalry, but according to the RL project website it's 47 wins each, with 2 draws. Plus the honours are similar too - just a few more CC wins for Hull FC. It looks like a fairly even rivalry. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Edit : I tthought as much... 236 games played in all, Hull winning 120, Hull KR 106 with 10 draws.

Still a close rivalry though. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I was on a Widnes schoolboys RL tour to London (we played Surrey u-11s and Middlesex-u11s IIRC) a year later and the Iranian embassy was one of the things all us kids wanted to see.

However, Hull won the play-off game 20-8 and went on the win the Championship final against Workington Town. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
