Don't remember the Conway scrap but, it was fantastic to see Wakey playing the Kangaroos, even if it was their mid-week squad.
I think we put more poi9nts on the Aussies than any other club team, although they won comfortably ??

Think Nick DuToit scored under the posts and got sent off later on, got involved in the scuffle that saw Benny Elias get sent of too?
Must admit, it was really fantastic to have the Aussies playing at BV.

Johnny T had the game of his life. They didn't enjoy dealing with him.
Nick Du Toit was shall we say robust with them too.

Great game which Big Al posted to me on DVD (despite not knowing me) along with a number of other games as a thank you for a club fundraising idea.

Remember coach saying was dirtiest game they had ever been involved in. They scored a try from a high kick which bounced inches from going out dead in goal but it bounced straight up in the air.

What a game and what a night. I think we had two sent off to their one but age dulls the memory. We really rattled them that night and we have never played them again. I remember Des Hasler making a break and being overhauled by Richard Slater much to his surprise.

Remember the game very well.
First time in the stand as a kid and the fight broke out from a scrum straight in front of us.
Remember Nigel Bell running around the scrum to collar whoever it was had upset him.
At one point Mal Meninga was patrolling the sidelines trying to make sure his team didn't get beaten (UP!!).
Will never forget the cold, wet evening - great game. A great Wakefield team.

We scored 4 tries against them I think, no one other than Halifax scored as many tries as Wakefield di that night.
Bobby Fulton had a stand up argument with harry Gration after the match and said something like "What the F--k do you know about Rugby" to him on camera. Australia had two sent off during the game and one after If memory serves me right.

There were a number of brawls which Trinity came out well on top from, the side we played was indeed the midweek team but by the end of the tour it was mostly the Test team.

If my memory serves me correctly billy got sent off for punching brad McKay but could be wrong. Awsome atmosphere and the Aussies knew they had been in a game. Would be interesting to know the crowd, as the old girl was rocking that night.
