We lost to Australia in the 95 World Cup Final.

On the team comparison a lot of people are comparing individuals sheer ability rather than how they fit in to the team and how the team as a whole plays.

The present Leeds team is exactly that, a team. The shower that played in 94/95 were a set of cliques and individuals who always cracked under pressure. Sure Hanley was a great player but even he couldn't lift that Leeds team to win a trophy.

In 95 we won all our group games (including Australia) but lost to the Green and Golds in the final.






SAINTS THE ORIGINAL AND PERENNIAL CHEATS

For sale full Saints kit (circa 1989). Shirts in pristine condition, but shorts badly soiled.

For 27 - 0 you get a trophy
For 75 - 0 you get sod all.

Wigan had eight in a row
Saints have five in a row

Schofield's ability with McGuire's attitude would have been one hellova player.

You're thinking of 2000 G1, when we shipped forty points at home to the Kiwis in the semi-final

That's it. Cheers,

That's me convinced then. Marcus Vassikolopolous over Sinfield any day of the week. Good point well made.

Ah, Tonie Carroll in his days when he believed himself to be a proud New Zealander. Before he became a true Ocker, and then a Kiwi again... :lol:

I don't think you could credit any one player with that. Mr Carroll didn't manage to get on the score sheet in that game.
