Remember us on scrumdown at Oldham away Kev Harcombe full back kicked a few vital goals to win believe Toppo coach at time ..again age might make things a bit hazy ??!

Aye is was not bad , neither was another Aussie before him , think he was called Riley played inside Dave Smith

A bit random Victar?!?!
But even then, I don't know who you mean.

Dave Smith record try scorer of early 70s? Don't know a Riley at centre at that time........nor why he is relevant to the Jackson thread but I'm intrigued now.

I remember one incident with Jacko playing at half back, it was straight from a scrum in our half & as soon as he got the ball he put a kick to the oppositions line , the fullback was up in line with the scrum & had to about turn to his own line. I'm not sure if we scored or not but it was a great move not seen so many times down at Belle Vue.

John Kear had us do that move two or three times when we had Fox and White on the wings (pace). It was particularly effective against Bradford at home where Paul White ran rings round Karl Price who played opposite him. When we kicked from a scrum in our 20, White was putting the ball down at the other end while Price was still turning round.

I'd use it against Cas too. Carney isn't the best at that either.
Depends on big kicker too though.
When we had Brough it was a good move. I'm not sure our current kickers can get that kind of distance to make it a long race.
