You do realise this has never actually happened

Although I remember dene halatau running over the top of craigs son in 05 to score

 

[Hutty1986]

You mean calling him a Mediterranean Descendant again??

Despite 90% of saints fans being ones...

That's a humourously incorrect generalisation Vic!

Me too, vividly as it happened right in front of me. Poor old Youngy looked for a rock to hide under afterwards.

I was wondering what he was on about, as I don't recally Young going over / through anybody, ever, at any stage of a match, let alone to score.

 

[Sans Souci Sainter]

Cool 6 year old story bro.

 

[dragondad]

I could write some story up too how Boyd batted the ball over the dead ball line in front of me. It's cool though.

 

[Tiger Hawk]

So Young has never gone over / through anybody to score. Thanks.

Whoops, didn't see the GF last year?

You're referring to the try where he ran into a gap? Not quite the same as going over / through somebody now is it?

Hmm, ask Mitchell Pearce about that one champ

About 8.10 in. Thought I remembered it fairly clearly. Fien comes out of dummy-half, steps off his right to attract the defender (think it's Aubusson), Young hits the hole and carries Pearce over, who was forced to come in after Aubusson came up on Fien.

So he ran into a gap and carried a player over. Still doesn't equal going over / through somebody to me, but if you'd like to believe it does then more power to you.

How big was the gap FFS. He scored next to the posts, I'd imagine the defensive line would be pretty tight around there. I take it he went in untouched as well. carry on........

Well this has degenerated into something altogether embarassing

Bloody Sydney weather, started pouring in Sydney's west an hour ago and is supposed to continue through to Saturday morning.

 

[Deacon]

anyone know roughly from which row undercover seats start?

Not sure mate, I'm in row 12 of my bay, so I'm expecting to get wet.

 

[Deacon]

yep I'm row 13, not confident either of staying dry

 

[sensesmaybenumbed]

A fit Lawrence makes a big difference to that Tigers team.

I remember when he cam back from injury this year (might have been agasinst us?) and I was expecting him to take a while to get back into the swing of it and he was on fire from the start.

Im looking forward to Youngy smashing that hoax Farah again.

You know your club paid money for Ennis don't you?

 

[MSIH]

Thought I'd come in here for some intelligent debate about the game. All I cop is some argument about whether Dean Young's ever burrowed in for a try. He probably hasn't, but I can't recall him ever diving either. Young > Farah.

I'm going to go with the Dragons by 4.

 

[sensesmaybenumbed]

Thanks for that. You're entitled to your opinion.

I wouldn't swap Farah (matchwinner when on song, struggling with injury) for Young (a real team man, but a workhorse and completely different kind of player. Has made the most of modest ability, held back by dodgy knees).

imho
