Australia ran out winners in the end 11-21
I think Neil scored all the Bradford points....maybe one other try scorer.

Thanks PT, the big fella gave them a real scare that day.

I was on the sleepers on the shale banking. Scored right in front of me.

I'd played rugby in the morning and travelled to watch the game, we were stood on the concrete terracing, and as I recall Neil scored at the opposite end throwing a dummy that just parted the Aussies and he cantered in from 30 yards or so. Mind you it was a week or so back and sometimes the memory is not as good as it was.

That's how I remember it

Australia won but Neil Fox showed he still had it. Peter Fox wanted to pick him for GB that year apparently but was overruled - one older player too many I think.

Yes, went to watch Leigh take on The Aussies at Hilton Park on Wednesday November 3rd 1982 (42 years ago yesterday). Leigh were reigning Champions and the Aussies initially showed a little respect by playing a pretty strong team (it certainly featured a certain Brisbane copper called Meninga - now coach). There the respect stopped - they put 44 points on us with just two John Woods penalties for Leigh. The crowd was 7680. To put that gate into perspective; Leigh's home derby against Wigan eleven days later saw 9373 attend.

I was there that day too
