He stripped off at Wakefield I remeber it well he was my late Mums favourite and when he started stripping she was pushing everyone out of the way to get his shorts.Alas she didnt get them but it gave us a good laugh

Sorry to pedantic but I'm sure the Salford Player that took out Critch in THAT amazing night game at the Willows was one Richard Webster , the former Welsh Rugby Union Player .

Am I right in saying Critch and Webster had a bit of previous leading up to the game?

I only went to the Willows twice, both were amazing games. That cold Wednesday night, and the Swinton Game last season.

Your spot on Rach.

Wednesday 20/9/1995 Salford Reds 14 Keighley Cougars 2, arguably the high water mark of Cougarmania in relation to team performance & result. I think it was Webster who put the cheap shot on Jason, this was made worse when Mike Gregory (RIP) dragged the prone Critchley to his feet in the dieing seconds of the game possibly thinking he was 'milking it/time wasting'. The full time hooter went shortly after & Critchley joins in the Cougar Crawl & other celebrations (we'd signed him from Salford). After the match he was diagnosed with a broken jaw.

666 you are incorrect and have got 2 matches combined.

In fact you did not see Critch score 6 tries as this feat was achieved in a midweek match against Widnes which Keighley won 66-6 (or similar score). You were away on business and missed it but I was there! (that is unless my memory is worse than yours).

He equalled the 5 tries in a match record in a game prior to the Widnes match (in his radio interview after the match he said "obviously" many times!)

He threw his socks in to the crowd in his last match for the cougars (I think)
