| I think it co-incided with the switch on of the new floodlight so you could actually see the game properly. I might be wrong about that.... my memory is useless.... but I do remember it was a fantastic atmosphere and I have never been so proud of my club in defeat

| Quote Fordy="Fordy"I would love a copy of this too. It would be interesting to see if anyone did have the rights to a video of that game.'"
The game was shown live on BSB (British Satellite Broadcasting) who merged later with SKY so I guess its SKY who own the rights.
The commentators were Eddie & Stevo though who transferred to SKY after the merger.

| The opening of the Wakefield floodlights was Yorkshire v Australia when Neil Fox played a blinder. 19,000 plus there that night. Was supposed to be meeting somebody there. Never found him (pre-mobiles).

| I've got a DVD copy of this match. I last watched it about a year ago. I might have to dig it out to watch again for old times sake.

| The penalty count that night was 27 to 7 against Australia. In his book Gary Belcher said that throughout the tour Aus got hammered in the penalty count. Johnny Thompson and Mark Carroll got sent off after half an hour. Ricky Stuart got sent off a minute from time and David (cement) Gillespie went after the final hooter. Dale Shearer Des Hasler and Billy Conway were all sin binned in the second half too. Ellias and Lyons played that night two of my all time favorite Australian players. That wasn't just a cobbled together midweek side they were all superstars. Ive got the back page of the Wakey Express stuck in my Programme. The crowd is down as 8000 (est).

I'll have to dig my old VHS's out but I'm pretty sure he was sat on the Belle Vue bench when John Helm interviewed him and I think it was either Salford or Hull at home.

| Cas at home think it was same game when Rambo Ronnie Gibbs saw stars. I've got the video and I've actually written "we like it hard" on the side.
