T Bishop used it to great effect - he also mastered the grubber, and ... as he followed through his kick - he often got felled by Ian Brady (the invisible man). Either the ref or the linesman would see him prone on the ground and subsequently rule infavour of the prone player and award a penalty directly infront of the posts.

The wrongfully accuesed player would carryon like a pork chop - be off his game - with Sir Thomas baiting him and snapping at his heels for the duration of the game

Led to many a good stoush.... aaahhhh the memories.

Dykesy last year verse the cows

Video here....it was the match winner ......more a chip than a pitch

Can't remember creaming myself more over a try in recent money.

We were getting pumped and Sir Adam rallied the troops and got us the points. My girlfriend shat herself when she heard me start to scream and cream from the lounge room.

Jeez is it was good watching dykes run the team last year. Fun times.

I hope that wasn't an advert for why Dykes should be half over Kimmorley.
He had to set up the 2 tries to make up for the two howlers he had in defence which led to 2 of the Cows tries.

On a side note, is there any truth to the rumour that the Club is editing that first 10 seconds of footage into a highlights package of Darren Albert's career at the Sharks?

:lol: :lol:

Correct me if I am wrong but I think the great man Sludge use to use it a bit in his arsenal.

And I know he didn't play for the Black White and Blue - but that Phil Blake was "reasonably" good at it too

Didn't Noddy try one against the Stains for Kearney?

Wasn't a bad effort, and pretty unpredictable for Noddy as well.

I remember a sweet one by ET for Matty Rogers down the left hand side in 2000 against the Dragons.

I thought Noddy (of all people) pulled off a really good chip & chase to score under the posts against the raiders about 2 seasons ago?

Jason Smith had torn us apart and I think that try got us the points

I remember Don Tweedle doing one in PL once, picked it up knee height and passed inside for a try.

Actually, it may have been a grubber but it sure was funny to watch.
