| Now who doesn't have a significant memory of games against Leeds - in whatever guise they are.
I know which my favourite would be, but I'll let someone else put it into their words.
Off yer go.................

| The tensest match I’ve ever been to against Leeds was the home match in 2006. Once of the last six games of the season. Strangely enough it was a low scoring affair and I remember Sinfield taking the unlikely option of kicking for goal, going against the then policy of Leeds to run all penalties.
Anyway the moment that sticks in my mind was the Tommy Saxton try. He received the ball wide on the right. Put his head down and powered through the Leeds defence to give us all hope of a much needed victory. Sadly those two points from the Sinfield penalty kick was the difference between the two sides but I think the performance installed a bit of optimism in the side to go on and beat the drop.
A loss I know but I have never seen Trinity beat Leeds. Out of the hammerings and close calls, this one stands out for me.

| Headingly a couple of years ago - i think it may have been last match of the season. Silverwood gave Leeds everything he could and they were in front for all of the match but just could not shake us off as we were right up for the fight. I remember that annoying bass drum being banged for about 70 minutes but it went very quiet when we deservedly went in front. George sealed the win with almost the last play - JK came on the pitch at the end - i went home with me dad and three girls stopped off for a bag of chips and thought "I love my life". Got in spent five minutes with the wife and changed my mind.

..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.
