This was the only rugby match I have stood in my usual spec and watched in a suit and tie. I was the godfather at my Goddaughters christening and had to sneek off from the Bull for an hour and half before returning for the boiled ham butties and qiuche. Luckily i got away with it.

Cheeky git, I'm still young enough to kick your @rse.

The game was played on 18th October 1992.

Saints lost McCracken, Ropati, Connolly and Ward after that season and replaced them with Adam Fogarty, Andy Dannatt, and Mark Elia with Phil Veivers moving to centre.

Showed the wisdom of the board in operation back then.

Totally agree.

What a game of rugby that was. I was only a nipper but still remember that game with awe. Fantastic spectacle.

Is it possible to buy a copy of that game anywhere ?

Joynty had an awesome game, if only we didnt have Bernard Dwyer kicking the goals me may have won.

McCracken was one hard b******.

Inspired signing by the board on a short term contract. Wish we could have had him for longer too.

I remember in Saints vs Wigan games from that year, McCracken would pummel Offiah every time he touched the ball. Offiah would poo his kecks if anyone passed to him and couldn't get rid of the ball quick enough.
