Your spot on Lyndsay, Foxy rolled the years back, he was 38 I think, and had a great game. He scored 1 try off an outrageous dummy. Sadly can't remember if they won .

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

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.

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.
