The drop out from Sheffield this year on SKY (I can't remember who it was against) when the ball travelled all the way up the pitch and went out at the back. Just the opposition players chasing the ball and never getting anywhere near it...

Defended in the centres, that must be it.

That '03 team was easily the worst Australian team i've ever seen. Not any of the teams that have followed since, that I annually hear are the "worst Kangaroos ever" on here. Phil Bailey a Kangaroo is a disgrace.

I agree. Hence why I said for once in living memory I thought we had better centres...
tbf we played one game completely with 12 men and I thought we were unlucky not to win that series and we lost 3-0, it could EASILY have been a British win, good series I thought.

You lost 4 games in a row against us in the last 5 minutes. First game of the 2004 Tri-Nations continued where the Ashes left off. I loved it, but i'm sure it was highly frustrating. Hindmarsh and Minichiello won us that 2004 game.

I was there, cracking atmosphere and I wish they could take more test matches to the COM, great stadium and we got about 35-40,000 i think.

Type in Youtube:

Henry Paul drop out try.


Quality (and against the auld enemy too).

I think it was in 2009, In a hull fc v hull kr game and after a FC player scores a try (number 4 i think it was) he punches his fist in the air to celebrate and punches Dowes right on the chin.

Yeah, that was Graeme Horne I think. There'sfootage of it on youtube but I can't find it.

When forum legend Barry McKenzie was crashing over seemingly at will for 4 pointers for the mighty De La Salle a few years ago I recall during a particularly hard game against the Menai Roosters (which we won 18-16) their halfback got his head split open by a swooping Magpie as he tried to add the extras following a try. He had to leave the field for 10 stitches in his scalp.






Aussie Magpies are lovely birds for about 10 months of the year. They have a beautiful song and are lovely friendly birds that will happily take food from your hands when they get to know you.

But when the breeding season arrives.... look out. A mate of mine was temporarily blinded by one of the b*stards as a kid

it was the 1st ever derby in super league in 2007 and it was sid domic who hit dowes right on the chin.

if you click on you tube and type "Hull FC Vs Hull KR 2007" And watch from 3mins and 20 sec's
