Halifax Rugby League Club v Australia Test Side,Thrum Hall 1994

[Browny180]

I was at this game and was fantastic.

It was the final game before the 1st test, hence the almost full strength Aussie side.

After the game Laurie Daley said it was one of the hardest games he had played in England .

It included 3 local lads, Smith, Perrett, and Jonny Lawless.

Happy days.

Greg Florimo ended his career with us a few years later.

what happened a hello sailor ..

[paulbbaxter]

I used to go to Thrum Hall in the 80s to watch Halifax, such a shame that the ground is now an Asda Supermarket... sacrilege.

[longyboo]

sure is sacrilege....everytime i go up there i still think about the games i saw up there.You can still see an old turnstile.

[MaverickUK77]

Heartbreaking to see our hall of fame on the wall of a fucking McDonalds up there..... Disgrace to the great players of the past.

[yourmum46]

they look pretty good for a club side. hey do you know whats the differance between england and great britian. because great britian has a good rugby league history. but england not so much.

[longyboo]

the difference is that England play in the world cup and Great Britain play all other games against Aus and NZ.

[longyboo]

Halifax used to be half decent but play in a lower league now...National League 1

[jimmymac32]

I,ve been saying that for ages. P.S It,s Halifax not halifix. Graham Eadie from Manly did well there in the 80,s.

[yourmum46]

where the hecks halifix. what country?

[luketheauzzie]

Their from england. They used to be in the superleague but dropped out and compete in a comp called the national one or something like that
