..from a more positive viewpoint....the awesome first half display from Leeds in last season first home game. Leeds racked up 40 points in one half and played some of the best RL I have ever seen.

Like one of the lads who goes with us pretty much home and away declaring 'I'd rather eat my own 5hit' when asked if he was going to this one! He still regrets it now!

| A cold snowy winters day at Headingley, Wally Lewis leathers the ball down the field to get us out of our own 25. Steve Martin fields the ball for Leeds only to be met by the exocet that was Lindsey Gill.
Gill copped him with a real ball n all tackle, Martin went down like a sniper had got him from the back of the stand. Referee Vince Massey makes his way over to Gill to rollock him and give the Loiners a penalty.
Up stepped Wally to tell Martin he was a big girl and he should get up, and to tell Massey that he was known in the NSW RL for taking a dive. To the delight of a few thousand Loiners the King was sent off at which point Martin got up off the floor like a spring chicken.
Come the half time hooter Vince Massey went off in the corner under a hail of snowballs from the Trinity faithfull behind the posts at the old scoreboard end.
Massey only wanted to 'make a name for himself' for sending off the King. We'd have beaten the Loiners that day had Wally stayed on.

| Yorkshire Cup Final, Headingley 1974. Leeds 7 Wakey 2. Eddie Waring going up the spiral staircase in the South Stand to the commentary position, waving as though he was royalty. Sorry, but that really is my fondest memory of Leeds v Wakey clashes.

Seem to remember Phil Eden scoring a late try to beat them at Belle Vue in the early 90s?

| Early 90's game in some really heavy rain, think we went 4-20 down and came back to win 22-20. Michael Jackson scored a brilliant try with a diagonal run straight through the Leeds defence.
Although any game where we beat Leeds is brilliant! ..and when it is at Headingley its even more special, if not just to shut that feckin' drummer and band up and see the South Stand walk giving the pie eaters a run for there money!

| God knows the year- but in my teenage years my grandad was a member of the headingley taveners for the cricket , but you also could watch Leeds too so I went a few times to watch a game for nowt and sat there fingers crossed that Leeds would lose . Was bad though cause you had to wear a tie , jacket etc. but had all the directors , sponsers so I heard all the juicy gossip about signings and stuff . This one year wakey turned up with no chance- again- and I turned up in my wakey tie and sat at the front of the box . It must of been a close game because I think it was phil fox or Eden scoring right at the end with yours truly jumping around in the middle of the Leeds nobs going delerious . My grandad secretly loving it too as he watched wakey growing up . The best thing was my mum was watching on the terrace and she looked up into the taveners to see her little boy jumping up and down with his arms in the air thinking" Jesus Christ " .
The only other mega match was when andy Wilson had his knackers ripped open , came back on , and scores !!
I was in the taveners when wally lewis was sent off too - really wanted to be outside then !!

| Was at headingley in 2000 when we beat the Rhinos. One of the best games McNamara had for us! That Adam Hughes try shut the south stand up!
Here's the report, some old names that i'd forgotton like Tony Tatupu!
A last-gasp try from Adam Hughes gave Wakefield a stunning 22-18 opening day win at Headingley in Super League V.
The Wildcats centre pounced on a loose ball to kill off a stunning late comeback from the hosts.
Trinity had caught the home side flat-footed as they stormed into an 18-0 lead but the Rhinos refused to throw in the towel in a thrilling encounter.
Andy Hay, Jamie Mathiou and Francis Cummins all crossed in the second half as the Wildcats buckled under the fierce Rhinos onslaught.
But Hughes emerged from an in-goal melee with the crucial injury-time winner which gave the visitors the win.
The Wildcats, responded emphatically to last week's 46-0 mauling by Bradford, caught the error prone Rhinos napping from the kick-off.
The visitors were on the scoreboard as early as the second minute when powerful prop Francis Stephenson charged over under the posts after a fine move initiated by hooker Ryan Hudson.
Hughes then made sure of a comfortable half-time lead for the visitors when he sprinted 40metres down the touchline to cross for a second after 25 minutes. Skipper Steve McNamara made no mistake with either conversion.
The Rhinos, missing influential skipper Iestyn Harris, who failed a late fitness test on a knee injury, did manage one first-half touchdown when centre Paul Bell crossed - but the play was pulled back for a forward pass.
McNamara extended his side's lead with a penalty soon after the restart before winger Paul Sampson finished off a fine move for another try.
Sampson was himself involved in a move which saw his side sweep forward in formidable fashion before Tony Tatupu put him through to score in the corner.
Yet Leeds were not content to lie down and loose forward Hay finally gave the home fans something to cheer with a belated try after 57 minutes. Cummins' conversion narrowed the deficit to 18-6.
Mathiou then hauled Leeds further back into contention with another try and the increasingly influential Cummins set up a rousing finish when he went over for a third.
Cummins raced over the whitewash after a powerful burst from Mathiou and then raised the roof when he landed a simple conversion to level the scores.
The impetus had switched to Leeds but Wakefield held on as if their lives depended on it and were rewarded for their persistence when Hughes grabbed his second try barely seconds before the hooter.
