Quote: MattyB "One that stands out for me is a Challenge Cup Semi Final against Saints at Old Trafford, 1990 IIRC? Extremely tight game with nothing between the two teams. Into the last two minutes the score is level (potential replay looming in those days)? Hanley breaks through just inside the Saints half, rounds two with ease and has Goodway on his inside but running at least two yards in front of Hanley. Hanley puts a short pass to Goodway that was ridiculously forward who then goes under the posts to win the game and send us to Wembley again.

The highlights are on Youtube, searchSt Helens v Wigan - March 1990 (Challenge Cup Semi Final)[/i

Skip to 7mins 50 secs to see the offending try.

Good job there was no forums and social media in those days It's hard to say for sure from that angle, but Hanley is in front when he passes it, and stays in front when it's caught. It goes forward in relation to the ground of course, but that's irrelevant. Maybe forward looking at his hands, but not by miles. Those short ones are tough in real time. Mind you, I'm guessing the touch judge was well out of position, you can see him being very half-d earlier in the move. The ref has also turned his back!

Pass about a yard forward. What a game though. Get misty eyed watching RL of that quality.

Yeah I only started watching in '01, Russell Smith was widely regarding as our best ref from around that time until he left for Aus. My auntie hated Cullen with a passion!

I'm surprised that no Saints fan has admitted to Chris Joynt's voluntary tackle as being the single most outrageous benefit they ever received....

I'll come back when it's hit 1000 pages. Mwa ha ha ha.

Quote: Karen "This was the example I was going to give! I was sat on the upper tier with my lad. The FC fan next to us needed a new pair of sunnies as his went flying over the balcony and to this day I still don't know how we didn't follow them!!
The rain falls on the just and the unjust alike, Karen. icon_wink.gif
I wouldn’t blame Albert Kelly’s injury woes and Hull’s current dreadful form on heavenly retribution for events in April, would I? No, it’d be beneath me.

Dobson’s pass to Lovegrove, at Magic 2012, suggested Ganson had some issues with depth perception.

We scored an important try against Leigh in the qualifiers off a really, really scruffy ptb last year. There might have been a case for interference, but the play-on was strange.

I can’t even remember the game, and it didn’t effect the result, but me and the guy next to me did a shocked double take when a Craig Hall touchline conversion was awarded despite looking to have gone about 3 yards wide from where we were stood, a few years back.

I think there’s a story about a ball bouncing off the roof of a stand and back into play, in a Rovers cup game against Swinton, back in the 50s or something. I’ll see if I can dig it up. Can’t recall whether it favoured us.

Edit - i’ve either misrembered or made up the last. I might have been thinking of a challenge cup semi-final replay vs Oldham at Station Road, where we were saved by a controversial abandonment for bad light in extra time when smoke from a steam engine that had pulled into the nearby station blew across the pitch. Replays and steam engines - evocative of a different age, if nowt else.

Edit - the ball bouncing out of play (not necessarily on the roof of the stand, although I prefer that version icon_lol.gif ) was for Alex Murphy to score against us a couple of years later.

The two worst calls I can remember Saints getting were in 2010. We received two tries awarded by the video ref against Salford and Crusaders away which were both clear drops.

We lost against Salford anyway, and beat Crusaders comfortably in the end, although it was close at the time.

One dodgy decision the year after another dodgy decision at the same event is one thing, a player's personal injury worries are another thing completely.
