If Rugby League Rocks, then Hull KR is its Soul.: |
|
| Huge congratulations on making it to SL.
Nobody can say you don't deserve it though, having beaten London, Salford, Hull KR and now Huddersfield. I was watching the game this afternoon until 62 minutes, at which point you were 48-16 up. Then I had to go out. Come back to find a 48-40 final result. Much closer than it should have been.
Did you decide on a points giveaway just to make it spicy on points difference for the MPG places? Enjoy your weekend and the rest of the season and hope to see you back at ours next year.

| Done some checking back Charlie & all the stats suggest that I am wrong ....
Danny Halliwel did score a hat trick in Super League X at [iThe Colliseum[/i *remember that name* against Saints in a narrow defeat.
No hat tricks in the game v Wigan but we scored the 1st 3 tries (1 from Phil Jones) before going down to another narrow defeat before a crowd of just over 7,500.
IIRC we had to play Leeds 3 times in Super League X, never stood a cat in Hell's chance that year.
Bradford romped it home with big Leslie Vainikolo.

Trouble was, charlie, by the time we had won the GF, there was no talent left. We had better players lined up (whose names totally escape me) but we were outbid by London, for 3-4 of them. I remember that we had loads of SL shirts left at the end of that season. many of them were 7XL (yes, 7!!) I believe they had been purchased with Mr McCurrie in mind! ![Wink icon_wink.gif](images/smilies//icon_wink.gif)

| Wasn't the Phil Jones hat trick against Wakefield in one of our 2 wins?
My memory of the Wigan game at Hilton Park was we started well then it went downhill when Rowley went off.

Luke Dorn was one that we missed out on. London came in with a last minute offer to gazump us.

It was, the third try can be seen here: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=nNR19eOLXbI
Seem to remember Phil Jones kicking a few goals that day too.
He returned to rugby union the following year, Sedgely Park I think.
