Two play-off games to go as yet, obviously, but the last league game tonight.

Anybody got any memories ?

I'll start us off with the comeback from 2-22 to beat Perth Reds 26-22.

I remember Paul Bell making a pig's ear of grounding the ball in the first half, sliding over the dead ball line before he grounded it. And their full back coughing up the ball in the last five minutes to present us with a try that gave us an unlikely win.

They stuffed us at the WACA four weeks later.

Losing to Thornhill Trojans was a personal highlight.

Also shipping 50 against London Skolars.

Losing to Oldham two days after Powell had joined Keighley, memorable for the programme containing an article praising his loyalty to the club!

Widnes in 94, fantastic brawl on the pitch that the police broke up, even the blokes in the dugouts were scrapping!

Aaaaaahhhh, the Don Valley , Charlie has good memories , I must be one of the only away fans who likes it here , Mrs Caroli would enjoy the shopping at Meadowhall , I remember getting ejected from the Ground by over zealous Stewards , during a Challenge Cup game about 20 years ago , Charlie remembers when the Seagulls played at Owlerton Stadium , I liked it there to .

Keeping Bruce (McGuire} loose and walking round the running track to help pay for Lee Jackson. Then there was Brucies BBQ.

Just been reading about the 1997 World Cup Challenge on Wiki whose bright idea was that !! apparently the competition lost 5 million and it must have played havoc with the league schedule interesting to note we got 3K and 2.5k for our 2 home matches i wonder what our away following was for those two away matches !!!
