Was it the season after we did the same by beating Bratfud @ Odsal giving the pies the league again

yes it was because we beat Saints in both seasons at home IIRC

I was on leave & went to Odsal it was freezing. Meadows scored a pearling try & Bratfud were down to 12 men because their FB got sent off for a cheap shot in the corner IIRC

The second Saints victory contained a couple of cracking tries - one from on-loan centre Steve Warburton where he swerved in and out of about 3 tackles in a 30 metre burst to the line and another by Scott Martin where he dribbled the ball 50 metres and won the race to touch down.

Leigh won 21-4 that day.

Derek Disley was a man on form with his commentary and made the Saints Ron Hoof sound like an amateur by comparison.
