Wakey off to a flier.....42 - 12 v Bradford

I think it’s fair to say Wakey will be the Championship winners this season Swannie

It's not so long that the Bradford Bulls were a force in the Super League

The first sports I attended as a kid were rugby league & cricket at Headingley.

Then I saw teams such as Hunslet, Keighley, Batley, Batley, Whitehaven, Featherstone, Dewsbury, Barrow, Swinton & more in what was one huge league with 25 to 30 clubs competing against each other.

Leeds were champions in 1960 Wakey were a very good team in the 60s too.

I saw on Sky Sports that Meslier and Rutter were at the Leeds v St Helens game on Friday

Are there any Frenchmen playing for the Rhinos/Saints?

Do Hunslet Hawkes still exist I used to watch them play Shen I lived over there

Yes, been very close to their ground on my way to Elland Road today.

Yes, been very close to their ground on my way to Elland Road today.

Do you remember when Hunslet played their home games at ER? I hated it. No one but the great Leeds Utd should play their home games at ER.

Sangare and Goudemond play for the Rhinos.
And I remember Hunslet playing at Elland Road.

Yes I do, those lines on the pitch used to my head in.

Remember not so long ago, what a successful, powerful outfit Bradford Bulls were?

Remember not so long ago, what a successful, powerful outfit Bradford Bulls were?

I do. What a fall from grace. I remember Wakey playing them in the million pound game at Belle Vue a few years ago. Wakey won that game, thank goodness, or that could be Wakey now.

[whiteswan]

Come on Wakey....

[1964white]

Come on Wakey....

A semi-final against Bradford Bulls at 3pm.

[1964white]

What a different level, similar comparison to Premier League/Championship football.

Many famous names there I grew up with following Leeds as a kid.

[Barlow Boy]

Come on Wakey....

Good luck Swannie
