Quote Double Movement="Double Movement"They were the days, Geoff. Your boots sunk so deep into the quagmire, you were lucky to keep your boot on as you tried to move forwards. We had a supply of orange balls just in case the winter snow had any ideas of getting in the way. No moving kick-offs to midday as all the players would be at work. Stewart Piper used to score with more punches in a season than he got tries. And whoever thought of 8 interchanges?'"
Problem with Mr Piper he couldn't match the technique of Bernard Asquith
sorry to say not many people on here will have seen Bernard trading punches with the opposition, you also failed to mention that the scrum half used to put the ball in the middle of the two front rows unlike today where they feed it to there own loose forward what a farce no wonder Ted Heath emigrated to America & made a successful career as a professional wrestler.
Happy Days
