They all had tights on training on the 3g at Kirkstall on Satrurday

and we all know what damage carpet burns can do!!

Remember cas away in 99. 18-0 down, the announcer taking the p1$$ out of us and sheridan went over in the last couple of seconds. Harris kicked the con and we won by two points. Fantastic ending

Didn't we come from 20-0 down against Stains in the last 15 minutes and win 24-20 a few years ago?

The one I remember are scoring 3 tries in the last 6 minutes against Wakefield to win after the hooter (Scott Donald going over and John Kear abusing his clipboard).

I postulated on the Saints board that the definition in the Hemmings RL Dictionary of "Doing a Saints" should be changed from "scoring an improbable try in the last second to snatch victory from the jaws of defeat" to "blowing a match winning lead when your opponents are on the floor".

Yes, IIRC the final score was 30-20 to Leeds

iirc it was McGuire who put the kick through, I think Ablett regathered it and passed it to McGuire. Definately Scott Donald who scored though.

Wasn't Eddie Hemmings almost crying at the point Scott Donald scored, something along the lines of "Oh this is cruel on Wakefield" etc etc ?

Think I might have heard Phil Clarke's head hit the table at the same time !

I was talking to Rhinoms before the game and jokingly said, "Just watch. Kirke will be the only player to run out in tights"... low and behold

No damage done there then.

We're gradually getting there.

Peacock monster drive on the 4th, Buderus acting half pass to Jones-Buchanan, on to McGuire who chipped forward, collected on the second bounce by Ablett who made ground and threw the ball back to centre field for Buderus to send the pass back out wide to McGuire. The next bit was pure genius, the stumble brought Wakefield's only defender in the vicinity (Brough) towards the grounded McGuire only for him to calmly send Donald over in the corner.

Without first hitting the deck Brough may have made the tackle or prevented the pass to the winger etc but by hitting the deck McGuire committed Brough and ensured Donald of a walk-in.

Having just watched it on the famous video sharing site, I can confirm you are indeed correct.

Just a minor clear up. The tights weren't allow due to complaints (well Mathers) they are allowed at any ground in RL. Salford just got in touch with the RFL to clarify and were told as long as they were the proper sports tights their was nothing wrong with it.

Had to laugh hearing Kirke was the only one wearing, but heh it's the individuals choice!

Seem's your lads enjoyed the pitch and with the RFU approving Sarries for using the same surface at their new digs I wouldn't be shocked to see one appear at Headingly in the not too distant future.

I was interested to see the quite high number of Widnes U20 players who were wearing tights on Sunday.

Well I guess they have to play on it every other week

It is interesting as a few 20's seem to wear them but not one first team player has yet and some no-longer wearing sleeves either. As I say all down to the individuals though... maybe 20's feel less daft in them
