Okay I will (stats from RFL Fans.com Statistics)
Yeaman, Dowes, Horne, Whiting still with us from those days. I think you'll see some good players but also some that I think many would be calling "dross" nowadays.
We were fourth after 8 games and still in the same position after 12 games, and we were on 11 points whereas Huddersfield were fifth with 10 points. We had scored 203 points and had conceded 147 (difference = 56)
We are now fifth after 8 games on 10 points which is the same points as Huddersfield who are in fourth. We have scored 194 and conceded 143 (difference = 51)
It all looks very similar to me
