[b:2e2uhwyq][size=150:2e2uhwyq] When Hull KR got promoted they said there was only room for one elite team in Hull... how right they were! [/size:2e2uhwyq][/b:2e2uhwyq]:6760.jpg



Quote: Wheels "... Well done Chris Thorman anyway.'"


But, coming back to the original post, Thorman hasn't actually broken the all-time record anyway - so George West of Hull KR still stands on the top of the pile.

Yes he has. he got 54 points to West's 53.

He has not broken the amended record taking into account the old scoring system. But his name will go into the record books and rightly so. Well done CT.

Erm, may I be as bold as to suggest that the "amended record" is the one where tries are somehow magically worth 33% more points even though the same physical event took place, rather than the other way round. On a like-for-like basis, the only valid basis for any scoring record, West beats Thorman by either 53 vs 50 or 64 vs 54, whichever way you prefer to cut it.

C'mon you Rovers! icon_lol.gif

Update https://www.therfl.co.uk/history_of_the_sport/all_time_recordsrl

Sky Sports ScoreCentre had Presley kicking 1 of the goals when I first posted, and in fact the Sporting Life website still does.

I'm sure the record books will be able to count as well as I can, no concerns there (eventually, when someone has pointed out the obvious to them...)

I don't know why everybody is so surprised at this result. Northumbria Uni lost by 132-0 at Blackpool in the Championship One last season. icon_smile.gif

kcab sfrawdder Luck is a combination of preparation and opportunity Just to avoid confusion Starbug is the username of Steven Pike SOMEBODY SAID that it couldn’t be done But he with a chuckle replied That “maybe it couldn’t,” but he would be one Who wouldn’t say so till he’d tried. So he buckled right in with the trace of a grin On his face. If he worried he hid it. He started to sing as he tackled the thing That couldn’t be done, and he did it!:9005.jpg

You can only score using the points avaliable at the time of the game, so congratulations to Thorman on the World Record. West still hold the record for tries in a match though.

Most in a Match
56 (4t, 20g) by Chris Thorman (York City Knights) v Northumbria University (Carnegie Challenge Cup 3rd Round)
6 March 2011

He is no stranger in acheiving world records....

Quote: "]'"
] The fastest hat-trick of tries scored from the start of a match is 6 min 54 sec by Chris Thorman (UK) playing for Huddersfield Giants against Doncaster Dragons in the semi-final of the Buddies National League Cup at Doncaster, South Yorkshire, UK on 19 May 2002.

Well done CT
