Funny how the mind works, you will probably remember things clear as day which in the grand scheme of others things have turned out to be minor in comparison to final winning tries/plays for example and things perhaps others won't remember. Here are a few of mine and if you could add to this it would be (for me anyway) great reading and perhaps rejig my mind of things I have since forgot.

- Rob Burrow picking up and dumping Jamie Thackray (then at Hull I think) on his back before pulling his shirt over his head and started slapping him.

- Could even be the same game, Sinfield chose to go for the two points in the last couple of minutes despite being plenty of tries ahead. Instead ball of the tee he chips to the corner and Leeds score. Well, the video ref chalked it off.

- Ryan Bailey kick and chase, thinking 2012 at home versus Catalans? Great kick and chased by the man himself as he thundered into the full back.

- Versus Warrington, cup 2005 at home, think a student in the houses behind western terrace was playing a drum kit which lead to a couple of people in the south stand shouting at the Warrington fans who in turn gave it back in a farce of a minutes silence.

- Not amazing this one. Seem to remember Wigan warming up on the cricket ground once maybe 2005 when we beat them 70-0. Not seen that happen since.

- Cas away 2004, early in the season and David Furner hammering Jamie Thackray every time he ran straight at him - repeat this about 15 times.

- Reception given to Big Les at his last rugby league game versus us at home. On a similar note, think he accidentally knocked out Rob Burrow through his knee and straight away put him in the recovery position and looked after him.

- Cas at home 2004, we must have won by 60 and Cas scored one try, fairly close to the posts and their kick scuffed the ball which just ran across the ground, I don't think it actually increased in height after being kicked and is probably the worst goal kick I've ever seen.

- Wayne McDonald near length of the field versus St Helens at Knowsley Road 2003 - I am sure this happened where he went the length of the pitch, including dummying Wellens and sprinting past seemingly everyone!

Would love to hear what little moments spring to your mind!

Big Ali out-pacing the entire Saints team in the 2005? playoffs.

Bailey getting penalised away at Saints for tackling too hard.

Ali's try against Wigan, I think, where he dove in magnificently at the corner.

In 2009 Leeds scoring 2 tries in the last 3 minutes to come from behind to beat Wakefield.

Bailey with that kick return V Catalan and his running battles with Saints and the FGB in particular.

Keith Senior slapping John Wilkin. Also a try Senior scored, I think vs wire. Straight up carry off the ruck, burst through, had Webb or Mags in support but rounded the fullback instead.

Ian Kirke chasing down, I think Paul Sykes at Odsal over 50 metres.

Great idea for a topic... Bravo!!!

Can't remember all the details, but I'm going to go for an away game at Sheffield that was one of my favourite days out and sticks in my memory. Mainly because it's the last game I attended with both my Dad and Grandad who have both since passed away.

It was in the Graham Murray days when Harris would start at 1, with Powell at 6 and St Hilare on the bench. Leeds played absolutely awful for the first 60 mins from recollection and were I think 20 points down in the last quarter. Murray played his customary trump card with St Hilare on at fullback for Powell, with Harris moving to 6 and orchestrating a fine comeback and nicking it right at the end - I have a feeling Harris might even have kicked one from the touchline to win it.

The extra-time Challenge Cup semi at Huddersfield will also long live in my memory - It's right up there with all of our trophy winning games for me.

And finally, the away game at Wigan when Cassidy got Moz with the mother of all cheap shots - what an atmosphere! Miss the old Central Park away days. Infact, I really miss the whole Graham Murray era - the most enjoyable rugby I've ever watched and what I'd give for the game to go back to that type of play... That pack of Moz, Newton, Barrie, Farrell, Fleary, Glanville - imagine the damage they'd do to modern day packs if they'd played them back in the day. Then throw in Harris in his prime and the super classy Brad Godden. Today's sanitised version of the game is nowhere near as enjoyable to watch!

Catalans playoff semi in 2009. McGuire's 2nd try when straight from a kickoff, Sinfield 20m from our own line on the second tackle fires a long pass out to Donald, he races down the wing to halfway, puts a high bomb up and just when you think "what the f**k are you doing its the second tackle!"...McGuire comes out of back play and his run is timed to perfection and he doesn't have to alter his stride one bit to catch it and run 30m to the line.

The 2003 cup semi final was just amazing. Still the best game of any sport I've ever seen.

Ian Kirke's try vs Wigan at Headingley from 30 yards out.

Scott Donald's pass to JJB at Millennium magic in 2007.

Anthony Farrell's last minute try vs Cas(?) to snatch the game.

When we came out of the ground, heading back from the coach there was a Wildcats fan absolutely mortalled, shirt buttons ripped open being held up by his very overdressed other half, completed with strap heels dragging behind her, make up ruined and this guy just absolutely in tears, hardly unable to stand. He must have promised her a great night out or something and instead taken her to the rugby.

When he caught sight of me and my brother in Leeds colours he just completely and utterly lost it, the level of anguish and rage pent up was amazing, f'ing and blinding "YOU!! YOU'VE DONE THIS TO ME! I 'ATE LEEDS!! ITS ALWAYS F'ING LEEEEEEEDS!! WHY CANT WE BEAT EM!"

We respectfully of course burst out laughing, then his Mrs chipped in "'E were appy!! we were winning! 'e was gonna take me out to celebrate!! now look what youve done!!! youve ruined me larfe!!" Then he fell in a heap and we made our exit swiftly into the night.

Always stuck with me that. icon_lol.gif

Cas fan outside the boot room or early bath screaming "we all hate Leeds scum" while wearing a Leeds Utd top on was another highlight, the more he screamed, the more we laughed, the angrier he got.

Anyone remember the legendary Tom Bush? "That" chant icon_lol.gif icon_lol.gif me and me dad laughing our heads off and my Mum completely non plussed icon_lol.gif icon_lol.gif

Although I've been to a fair few games including my fair share of finals I think 2014 when we finally won the challenge cup, the atmosphere inside Wembley was outstanding not to mention the journey down and the banter between Leeds & Cas fans. Fantastic day out and a great advert for the sport. It was also great heading home with a huge smile on the face rather than another year of disappointment.

Also that try from Robbie Burrow in 2011 against the Saints at Old Trafford.

The timeline for that game can be seen here in the bottom right hand corner

Agreed. Can't imagine they'll be any letters going out from Red Hall asking the players not to be so rough these days.

Gary Schofield moments stick in the memory. Playing against Halifax, he made a break down the left infront of the South Stand and Jon Bentley came across to cover. Bentos smiled at him and held out a hand offering Schoey the outside. Schoey slowed right down, drew Bentley in and then kicked through perfectly for the young Franny Cummins to shoot past Bentley, collect and score. Even Bentos laughed.

Second was an away game at the Boulevard (JP trophy I think), and Schoey got the worst abuse from a crowd I've ever heard (Sam Tomkins would have cried his eyes out). Last laugh though went to Schoey, not only did he play great but finished Hull off with an interception bang on our try line to go the full length. I was at the end in the corner where he scored and I'm sure he must have seen us right by the wall waving him in. Great moment.

Sinfield receiving the kick off waiting for the defensive line to get a bit closer then booting the ball all the way back up the other end of the field for a kick chase. It didn't work but was an interesting ploy.

In 2003 we had been going to more and more matches and this is the moment when I realised I was absolutely hooked and from 2004 have been a season ticket holder.

rlhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v

Watch from 7:49. When Dunneman put the kick through for Danny to chase the South Stand around me went absolutely nuts and the noise and excitement was just amazing. (Watching it back though I can't believe Kev missed the kick!)
