Snipped

Do I not hold the right to post my opinion on a rugby forum if I didn’t see the guy play for Wakefield?


You can I guess but I'm not sure why you would when we are talking about Lewis's time at Wakefield.

I seem to recall the game he got really thumped and came off was Oldham. He came back to be instrumental in us wining. Nowadays he wouldn't have been allowed back on what with head assessments.

Yes think your right about that being Oldham , re Halifax I never really got over Halifax beating us in challenge cup at thrum hall. Was left traumatised by it and still have nightmares.

I will of been about 18 when you had that scrap at Widnes.

Sorry I only guessed 18 because of your fixation with the number, trinity18, thick rick18, R hick18, plus you just happened to have had 18 bouts as a boxer, can you see the confusion here, oh and fwiw I've never been to Widnes.

Ah ok. I was right. You don't get it.

You could have just asked us why we are bothered. I thought you wanted to praise someone else instead or felt some principle about someone spending money on him. In fact it seems you are just arguing for the sake of it. Disappointed now.

I don't know why people are bothered about Babe Ruth as I never saw him play and haven't really even seen him on video but people hold him in high regard so they must have a good reason. I'm unlikely to go on a Dodgers forum and challenge their opinion as I have no basis to challenge them.

It seems you didn't see him play for Wakefield. Don't know the players he played with or against, don't know the history of the team at that time, yet feel you can challenge the opinions of those that do.
We are very different people.

He played for the Yankees predominately mate, Dodgers back then were the other New York team, unless I misunderstood.

It was their New Zealand fullback Wright (Think Owen Wright).
Proper WWE stiff arm.

You are correct. I knew I should have checked that. I could remember seeing his name on shirts when I went in the team shops in New York but couldn't remember which one it was.
Kinda proves the point. I don't know the details well enough to comment.

Another hypocritical comment, whether I know the details more than anyone else on here or not my opinion is my opinion so as per your own words I shouldn't be challenged on them :D
