The scrim reaper Posted August 13 Share Posted August 13 (edited) I would invite anyone and I know we get a lot of fans from other teams on our forum, to watch the last batley try again ( not forgetting the first one that wasn't bad either) and ask is it the best wembley try ever? There's no bias here! Just seeking opinions! personally I don't remember ever seeing a try like that at Wembley!

Dog forever Posted August 13 Share Posted August 13 It was an amazing try, and certainly the best I have seen . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Blues Ox Posted August 13 Share Posted August 13 Best Ive ever seen. I think half our fans including myself tried to make the last ditch tackle in the corner. 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ovenden Grunt Posted August 13 Share Posted August 13 It was an absolutely brilliant try but if it had cost us the match i'm sure the two forward passes would get more of a mention. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

colinb Posted August 14 Share Posted August 14 Definitely best try seen at Wembley. I know I'm biased but I think it was better than " Wide to west". But won't get as much publicity beyond our own leagues. 2 WHERE DO YOU WANT ME TO SWIPE THIS? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

andyram Posted August 15 Share Posted August 15 Are the rumours true you are changing your name to the Batley Globetrotters from 2024? Got to say it's probably the best try I've seen at Wembley. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The last pass was clearly forward, not that it matters now. It was as i've said an absolutely brilliant try. A fantastic weekend and i get the feeling it might not be the last time we meet this season. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The final pass looked OK to me and the referee and the TJ. Let it go. Halifax won and on the overall 80 minutes probably deserved to . If one of us beats Fev in the playoffs we could be looking at a Wembley repeat in the final. Let's hope so, eh? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think a couple of thousand Fax fans behind the posts were guilty of just blowing it wide. Ground went silent, I dont think anyone was certain, even Hooley. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gittinsfan Posted August 16 Share Posted August 16 For last minute drama in a Wembley Final,surely it must compare to the conversion miss by Don Fox in the last minute of the so called water logged final. As an aside,after Hooley's miss,I consoled myself watching the highlights of the 42-0 game on a loop.LOL 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
