When Greg put that last minute drop goal over Clive Tyldsley simply said "heartbreaker".....
and befitting a team with Greg Mackey in it, both sides left the field to a standing ovation.
RIP a real nice bloke and bloody good Rugby League player.
Boy were the Warrington fans getting at him all afternoon too!! he shut em up though after 80 minutes of sheer power tackling from both sides! He refused to be intimidated and said in the HDM afterwards, “If they had hoped to put me off, then they certainly didn’t, the more they chanted the more I wanted to inspire Hull to victory”. Lovely fella, great to talk to, had time for everyone a real leader from half back too, Smithy once said, "There was no better player than Greg Mackey to have on your side" such a shame, true hero!!!
"You fu*king beauty!" RIP Greg Mackey!
