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 .

That's how I remember it

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.

Yes, went to watch Leigh take on The Aussies at Hilton Park on Wednesday November 3rd 1982 (42 years ago yesterday). Leigh were reigning Champions and the Aussies initially showed a little respect by playing a pretty strong team (it certainly featured a certain Brisbane copper called Meninga - now coach). There the respect stopped - they put 44 points on us with just two John Woods penalties for Leigh. The crowd was 7680. To put that gate into perspective; Leigh's home derby against Wigan eleven days later saw 9373 attend.

I was there that day too
