I lol'd at the kicking. They'd both missed 14 yet Dobson had kicked 70 more

He missed 4 first and it was the man in the background to the left that had taken our sole dropgoal attempt, such was his 'i am' ego. Not that this one game makes Briers better than Dobbo? The stats speak for themselves over the season, that was a challenge cup game.

Oh don't be so precious. As Easty says, you like to "laugh out loud" at comparisons between Briers and Dobson, good for you. This is simply redressing the balance a tad in what was in fact this pivotal kicking moment between the 2 teams in the last few years and one in which both Dobson and Briers participated.

Dobson did not participate in that 'pivotal kicking moment' between the two teams, it was Cooke. The whole team were f***ed and we go into position only once, Cooke missed. Your spin does not make Briers better than Dobson, nor does your infatuation with Rovers.

We lost and so what, Briers is the drop goal king. I look back at that game with fondness. Although I'm a Rovers fan watching Morley dismantle Rovers from the 70th minute onwards was a pleasure. That was some of the best forward play I've ever seen on a rugby pitch.
