I think it's pretty obvious what happened there. He started by giving the sidies a trim, but then he checked the mirror and the left one was a bit longer, so he took a bit more off. But what do you know? Now the right one's a bit shorter, so he took a bit off that..... you see how this ends up.
Either that or Mr Burns was coaching the team that week.

I wouldn't go so far as to buy a print, as it was a bit heart-breaking as a nipper to see it at the time, but I do look back on that as having been present for one of the great Wembley moments. I watched it again on the Challenge Cup archive on BBC this morning. It's still probably the best try I've ever seen. Even Offiah couldn't quite believe what he'd just done.
Cracking photo too. |

It shows what it means to him to play rugby.
It's not just his freakish abilities that make him a great player but his Edwards-esque passion for the game.'"
I agree entirely. |

A terrible attempt at a tackle by Neil Harmond. It took real quality to 'round' Tate too.
Hopefully there'll be a few like that on Saturday. |

[size=100:2md8k3b3][b:2md8k3b3]'Do you remember when we had that meeting in Orlando? We talked about how we were knocked out the previous year by Leeds. And at the end, I asked you one question. "Do you want to be a semi-final team? Or do you want to do something special?" You all said you wanted to win. But talking is easy – it needed you to believe. It needed you to work hard – harder than you had – and make sacrifices. You did all that. you worked for each other. You stuck together when it was tough. And because of your efforts, you sit here tonight as champions. I'm proud of you. Be proud of yourselves. You've done something special.'

He is only shedding a tear as he has just heard that his best mate "Bubba" is going back inside for breaking the terms of his probation order.

Wow you're negative! Harmon didn't get near enough (or on-balance enough) because Offiah was much, much too quick for him.
If there's even one like that on Saturday I'll be amazed. |

Apart from that you're right sorry.

Really?
If you kick into Space and have a weak or uneven chase, then it won't amaze me at all. |

In my book, doing it in broken field isn't the same as doing it when the line is set. I'm not ruling out the possibility of long-range tries (God knows you have the players to do it), just that I haven't seen many like that one and I don't expect to see any like it on Saturday. You have a player in your side now who is capable of it, but even those sort of players can't do it that often.
No, not Gareth Hock, the [iother[/i player. |
