Joe Lydon in the CC at Maine Road - find it on a well known video site.

Thats the one I was thinking of.

Prekkie aside, Cooke's at Knowlsey was my fav

Didn't Hitro Okesene attempt one once? And Kingy actually kicked one at the Boulevard, didn't he?

Ah Kingy - always gave 110%

Andy Ireland at caravan park

95 yards?! So he was near our try-line was he?! I've heard of exaggerations but come on!

Has to be Graham Mackay's against New Zealand in the last game at the Boulevard. 51 metre drop goal in the last second of the first half to put us in the lead at half-time. Excellent!

Broughs at Cardiff actually won us some Silverwear.......the others didnt.

Offiah's deserves a mention,
gave Salford a 1-0 lead vs Bulls and they lost something like 70-1 iirc

You obviously weren't there then ?

It was about half way, and the Shay is a short pitch. About 50 yards at most and still a cracker, but "95 yards" ?? get real mate !

Gary Pearce kicked most of our long drop goals, but must admit Graham Mackay v Kiwis was cracker too

Er, I don't think he was being serious.

Cant be anyone but Broughs at cardiff so important.

Cookes against sainta to give us our first win was great too.

I would love to see the stats in the last 10 years on how many drops we have got compared to ones against us, i would guess it is at least 5/1 ratio against us.

I remember Offiah dropping a goal against us at Central Park in 1993. We recorded a rare win there that day, 14-13.

A couple which stick out, Gary Pearce dropping 3 goals at the old craven park in a derby win, 2 days after we have lost the semi final replay to halifax in 1988. Also, a year later Pearce launched a long range effort at Headingley in a 13-6 win.

Mick Cranes skewed 30 yarder in the 1983 Yorks Cup final managed to defy the laws of gravity.

I used to think the worst attempt at a drop goal was Steve Evans during the 1982 cup final. But then I saw Chris Thorman!!!!
