When the All Blacks played Italy a while back the last 10 minutes trying to set 1 scrum with the Italian pack being dominant on the AB's line and the referee terrified to award a penalty try (which would have been the correct decision)
85,000 italian fans made the most noise I have ever heard at a union match icon_cool.gif

Quote: vikings 4 ever "What about one team scoring, the opposition kick off, recover the ball and score directly from the kick off?

When Widnes played Whitehaven in the 2009 play-off's, the score wass 20-20 but Haven scored a drop goal with about 2 or 3 mins left. Widnes kicked off, recovered the kick and broke away to score.'"



Huddersfield did this about 3 or 4 times in 1 game !!
albeit in the 142-4 world record thrashing of Blackpool in 1994 - there was one where they kicked off straight into the arms of Phil Helliwell who just ran straight back through the entire Blackpool team and touched down under the sticks!!!

I remember that. Hull were something like 20 points down at Headingly, there was no realistic prospect of a come-back, but it resulted in a right fuss about sportsmanship.

Also remember a game where a penalty was awarded near the touchline. The kicker opted to 'go for goal', at which point the defending team would go and stand behind the sticks. Said kicker then purposely kicked cross-field to his winger on the other side, who touched down. From memory the try stood.

It was Sinfield who took the kick.

If I remember rightly, a clearly bewildered Richard Silverwood handed it to the video referee who had to judge whether Sinfield has made a "genuine attempt" to kick the goal. Given that he was looking towards the corner flag, it was obvious that he wasn't and the try was chalked off.

To be honest, the look on Silverwood's face was a picture.

Sean Long had a few. My favourite, though not a true 'wow' moment was once when the clock was counting down with Saints marginally ahead against Warrington. Rather than running, passing or kicking the ball with the risk that Wire would get hold of it and score after the hooter, Sean just ran the ball all the way backwards over the dead ball line. Talk about doing what no one else thinks of.....

Alfie Langer pinching the ball off Tommy Martyn in the in goal area at Wilderspool. Langer just put the ball down for a try and Martyn still thought he had the ball so kept on running. Martyn's face when he realised what had happened was hillarious......Ha Ha

Quote: rob_a "Thomas Bosc's double chip over'"


unforgettable moment - he chipped the first on the 40 quins line,caught the rebound perfectly,ran a few more metres then chipped again on the 25,picked up the ball and td under the posts - even sweeter against the Quins.... icon_biggrin.gif

Justin Hodges "Greatest No Try ever". I remember on the first replay seeing that it had hit the line and just thinking, give it anyway.
