There seems to be a common theme here, fans from all clubs applauding Sinny... and then there's the sour-faced bitter resentful Wigan bigots, most of whom will never be able to appreciate any aspect of the British game that isn't draped in a Cherry and White flag.

Well done Sir Kev. I can't remember a player so valuable to their team in 45 years of watching.

Indeed. But then, how can we know that they weren't?

Because if we didn't have some voices trying to big up and be positive about good things that happen in the sport then we'll just be left with the negative voices making a noise......and then people will wonder why new fans aren't flocking to this sport that they keep hearing only bad things about.

Back to the goal kicking record I have just checked it out and the record for consecutive kicks is 41 in the UK by Featherstones Liam Finn. The record in the NRL is 34 by canterburys El Nasri, does anyone know how many Sir Kevin is on at the moment ?

36 sl goals i think
