I never made it to that game. My mate's dad was ill, so no lift. Bugger.

If it wasn't for that(insert expletive)Russell Smith then fans wouldn't be singing 'its always your year' to us. Still not forgiven him.

I remember a CC semi final not long ago, could be against Hudds at Salford, when kick off was delayed for no apparent reason. people went on their phones and found out a golf tournament thousands of miles away had reached a climatic ending. RL and thousands of fans and their transport had been put on hold by the broadcasters.

Leeds away in the 2006 play offs. The game was memorable enough, but getting there on a Friday night was worse than usual. I think a lorry had gone into trees next to the farm house in the middle of the motorway. We were late in the car, the team bus was late, kick off got delayed fractionally. All that paled into insignificance at the end.

I remember Cas away in 2004. The replica tops then were silk thin, so when the downpour came from nowhere it became skin tight and I was drenched. Memorable for a unique rendition of Singing in the Rain, I believe. I don't remember the match itself.

Fax away in 2002 - both memorable. Same year was another Leeds triumph, coincidentally another Lee Briers drop goal won it 23-22 midweek because of Lancashire v Yorkshire Origin (as they called it at the time).

it will have been around that time as i was always designated driver as i worked in a bar at weekends, so drove us to all games, and then off to work afterwards (days before summer rugby :) )

another memorable away trip for us was Fev away. mainly because we nearly didnt get there. 4 of us in a Fiat 126 plus inflatable red stripe bottle. Car packed in part way over, only for one of lads to save the day with a beer token. Every time the car stopped we pulled out the token to fix the issue :)

I would award that honour to Trent Waterhouse for not holding on to that pass 3m off the try line against Leeds.

This game has gone down in legend as the moment it got away but a week or so before we lost to Wakefield Trinity who were nearly relegated that season. In general we were really consistent that season, we lost home and away to Wigan and Bradford who we finished joint top with, but we won nearly every other game. That loss at Wakey was a really costly one. I remember that game as the star for Wakefield was a young Henry Paul who had just signed for them.

Just my opinions unless it's a FACT, in which case it's a fact.

Thanks for that, a reminder of how the game has changed. Very “off the cuff” but defence looked optional!
