Obviously we've got a few players ending their time with us on Sunday, and seeing the Optimist's comment on another thread, it got me thinking about best or defining moments fro some of these guys with us.

These are the first things that come to my mind as starters...

Alker:
Making a comeback from an appendectomy in a ridiculously short amount of time in a game v London Broncos and still being the only man to chase down a London player scoring a meaningless last minute 60 yard try when the game was won anyway.

Hat trick inside the first 9 minutes v Swinton.

Sibbit:
The try, and try saver in extra time of the Grand Final v Celtic.

Fitz:
His scrum half appearance in the 2006 season opener at Warrington - and his chip and regather for Hodgson's try in that game.

J Smith:
Saying what we were all thinking at Wrexham icon_lol.gif

Swain - being spark out against Wire at home on Good Friday last year then as he was being helped off suddenly regathering his senses & racing back into the defensive line.

Great thread. Heres mine-

Alker- he was never one for flash moments so I go for that tackle at knowsley road last year when everybody else had given up or the try from dummy half away at Wigan in 2005

Sibbit- the try in the grand final v Celtic

Fitzy- either his performance in the wire game 2006 or his try at home to Harlequins in 2005

J Smith- finding it really hard but would go with his dummy half run to set up Fitzy away at Bradford recently

Littler- his interception try away at Hudds in 2001

Is his departure confirmed?

Without doubt that tackle on Richard Whiting against Hull at the Willows this season when he looked all over a try scorer.

Didn't Talau make a try saving tackle, which possibly could of been a match saving tackle against Hull this year, or was that Fitzy?

Yeah it was King, that was about the time just when everyone said he was past it, if I remember right he played good for a few games after it.

Headingley April 09- I was there:



Littler's had many individual moments. Put consistenly staying in the side for over 10 years whilst many better and more established players have tried to take his shirt was nothing short of a miracle. Thought he was done for one season, but he stayed and became a better player.

ps. i spat out my drink when he was compared to mal meninga by phil clarke after that try at catalans earlier this season!
