Probably explains why I struggle to recall Edwards as being a 'dirty' player. In that type of company he was like your favourite hamster.

He was no Smales, Sorenson, Dannat, Skerrett, Fairbank, Harrison, Dixon that's for sure. He probably would have been if he was bigger though.

I dunno really. Probably that I can oly remember him doing one thing that wasn't a high tackle (a rather nice diaganol kick in a Regal Trophy final at Headingley). In my mind him and Edwards are synonymous with the phrase "high tackle." I can't help it.

1140_1361875489.jpg Leeds Rhinos? 8 for you, Leeds Rhinos! You go, Leeds Rhinos.
And none for Castleford Tigers. Bye!:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_1140.jpg |

We had a nasty pack in '98 and '99. .'"
And wasn't it great? The pack would clobber teams for a bit, then Harris would move up from full-back and slice them to ribbons. Happy days.
When the RFL gave us a warning for being a bit too tough, I was so proud.

I also remember when we played Cas at HQ and all the "Cotton eyed joes" cheered when Sampson came on and cries of deano rang out..............................until his 1st hit up and the "Head-hunters" got him cue cries of laughter from the SS as "Deano" was helped from the field not knowing if he was on this earth or Fullers!!

And to think your hero once came within 24 hours of signing but Leeds backed out when they heard he needed an operation to remove his flat cap.
True story.

I remember seeing the rumour in the YEP at the time.

Oh he's just full of class is old Deano. I played against him a few years ago in an amateur game. He was pathetic, tried a few big hits and big runs, got embarrassed by a bunch of fat lads from York, got sinbinned and went off abusing the spectators and didnt come back on again.

23997_1287161421.jpg [quote="Mark"]Great game of rugby league. Fantastic atmosphere, Wigan were breathtaking and dominant in all areas for the first 25 minutes, coupled with us making alot of dumb mistakes,then fortunately they brought McIlorum on which helped us back into the game. I thought some of the tries we scored to get us within two we're out of this world stuff. Towards the end we had to force it a little and we had a few things go wrong, i.e Monas kick on the first for King and Solomona going off who was causing havoc. Wigan were clinical in their eventual execution of us. Proud of Wire today and gave us a little glimpse to the future. Silverwood was awful as per, but I expect no less. Tomkins is a world class player and by far the best english player in SL. Wigan are a champion side and would be a worthy winner of taking our title as challenge cup. Good luck over the next month and a bit.[/quote]:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_23997.jpg |

| It would be a creamfest on here if you signed Sam Tomkins

Funnily enough, it did!
Interesting reference to the 19-0 win away at Wigan that season.

| I honestly believe that I have some kind of memory deficiency. I often read you guys recalling incidents that happened in games from years ago - I can't remember games I watched last season.
There has been occasions where I can't remember going to a game.
It annoys me.

I'd put money on them not being able to remember games from last season either. But 35 years ago, now you're talking...

It's only 10 o'clock and I can't remember what I had for breakfast. I can remember rugby matches from when I was 9 though.
What were we talking about?
Anyone seen my keys? I had them a minute ago. Put them over there, in the, err, thing. What?
