Not sure about a scare, but definitely a "headache" ...in the most physical sense of the word!

| I remember that game in 1990. I used to follow all the tour matches and get to as many as I could. I remember a big Aussie tangling with the someone - think it was Mark Carroll or Mark Geyer, could've been both. Think it finished something like 32-18 to Australia. Their coach Bobby Fulton had a massive fallout with Harry Gration afterwards when he accused Australia of letting people down with their ill discipline.

I remember the '78 tour, we went to the Bradford Northern v Aussies game at Odsal and if my memory serves me well Neil Fox scored two tries and then later in the tour GB won the 'Dad's Army' test at Odsal.

Your spot on Lyndsay, Foxy rolled the years back, he was 38 I think, and had a great game. He scored 1 try off an outrageous dummy. Sadly can't remember if they won .

Australia ran out winners in the end 11-21
I think Neil scored all the Bradford points....maybe one other try scorer.

I was on the sleepers on the shale banking. Scored right in front of me.

| I'd played rugby in the morning and travelled to watch the game, we were stood on the concrete terracing, and as I recall Neil scored at the opposite end throwing a dummy that just parted the Aussies and he cantered in from 30 yards or so. Mind you it was a week or so back and sometimes the memory is not as good as it was.

Australia won but Neil Fox showed he still had it. Peter Fox wanted to pick him for GB that year apparently but was overruled - one older player too many I think.
