Just watching the DVD Fred .......What I did n`t remember from those glory days was after being tackled on the 6th tackle, the team in possession had the feed at the scrum.... no wonder we didn`t have a kicking game....

I've just watched the Leeds John Player cup semi, 1984 I think.......we battered them and lost it in the last 5, 18-11.

I think the team was

Hogan
Drummond
Woods
Worgan
Fox
Donlan
Varley (forgot how good he was)
Wilky
Cant Remember
Earner
Westhead
Clarke (powerhouse!!)
Potter

Good following from the Leythers too...

If I could be bothered getting the DVD again out I'd tell you

I couldnt remember him when I watched it...Aincough rings a bell for some reason

Bob and Kevin Beardmore were certainly playing for Cas in 1981/82 though:

Kevin made 10 apps (6 tries, 18 points)
Bob made 37 apps (13 tries, 11 goals, 1 DG, 62 pts)

In that cup game Bob Beardmore scored one of the Cas tries with the other coming from Gary Hyde who also booted a goal.

The reason I said Gary Hughes is that he came through at the same as Johnny Westhead and Darren Beazant.........Although it could ve been Gary Ainsworth.

Ainsworth it was

Mick Hogan left almost immediately after, when Bishop signed John Butler from saints. Until Danny Campbell and David Stephenson, I thought Butler was our worst ever signing.

Dessie's try would never have made it past the video ref. Don't think I've ever jumped so high as then, though. Didn't Leeds play the pies in the final?
