This Week in Time - No.108

5 Years Ago.
17th March 2007, Hull FC 24 Saints 12.
Having been runners up to Saints in the league and Grand Final the previous season, Hull made a number of signing but had made a poor start to the season on the field and had an ongoing saga with Paul Cooke. Ill discipline from Saints gave Hull a plethora of penalties and one of those new signings, Danny Tickle, took full advantage, finishing with six goals. Saints trailed 10-6 at half time after Paul Wellens had crossed for a try. In the second half James Graham added another and Steve Tryer added his second conversion. In the final minutes Saints performance was summed up when Leon Pryce was sin-binned.

23rd March 2007, Saints 42 Hull KR 16.
After Rovers opened the scoring after 10 minutes, tries by Francis Meli, James Graham and Maurie Fa’Asavalu gave Saints a 16-4 half time lead. Paul Sculthorpe continued his comeback, from the bench coming on after half an hour and started the move that led to Leon Pryce increasing Saints lead early in the second half. Sculthorpe crossed himself before setting up Matt Gidley for a try. Lee Gilmour then went over before Meli crossed for his second try.

10 Years Ago.
17th March 2002, Halifax 20 Saints 26 (Challenge Cup 6th Round).
Saints were drawn away for the third consecutive time in the cup with a trip to the Shay for a televised tie. First half tries by Martin Gleeson, Darren Albert and Sean Long who added 5 goals gave Saints a 22-12 half time lead. In the second half, the Blue Sox hit back, and it took a late try form Gleeson to secure Saints passage to the semi final.

22nd March 2002, Saints 33 Hull 14.
Sean Long opened the scoring with a try then added a penalty to become only the third player to score 1,000 Super League points. Hull drew level with an interception try, but tries by Keiron Cunningham and Darren Albert put Saints 16-6 up at half time. Tommy Martyn atoned for his earlier error by crossing for a try and when Paul Wellens added a fifth it looked like Saints would run away with the game. To their credit Hull came back with two tries before Martyn added a penalty and dropped goal.

15 Years Ago
16th March 1997, London Broncos 24 Saints 28.
The opening league game of the season saw the Broncos, now owned by the Virgin Media Group, return to the Stoop. Saints were without the suspended Bobbie Goulding and had Lee Briers making his Super League debut. After a first half that saw the lead change hands on a number of occasions, Saints led 16-12 and increased that lead to 28-12 before the Broncos staged a late fightback. Karle Hammond continued his good form and scored two tries, with others coming from Anthony Sullivan, Alan Hunte and Danny Arnold.

22nd March 1997, Saints 50 Salford 20. (Challenge Cup Semi Final at Wigan)
Try “hat tricks” by Alan Hunte and Anthony Sullivan saw Saints return to Wembley after overcoming a strong first half challenge by Salford, as Saints led 14-4 at half time following a controversial try by Chris Joynt. In the second half Saints took complete control, the highlight being a length of the field try by Keiron Cunningham. Steve Prescott scored Saints final try.

20 Years Ago
15th March 1992.
With scheduled opponents Hull in Challenge Cup semi final action, where they lost 8-4 Castleford at Headingley, Saints had a weekend off. Off the field Mark Bailey signed for Halifax and Paul Jones was put on the transfer list at £35,000. Club captain, Shane Cooper was fined £400 and given a 4 match suspended ban for “wilfully introducing a second ball into play” during Saints’ Challenge Cup tie at Widnes.

22nd March 1992, Saints 30 Halifax 28.
Saints who had Anthony Sullivan and Jonathon Griffiths on international duty with Wales also made a number of positional changes but made hard work of extending their unbeaten league run to eight games. Tries by Shane Cooper, Paul Loughlin and Les Quirk gave Saints an 18-6 half time lead, but Halifax fought back in the second half. Cooper added his second try and Alan Hunte added a fifth, all converted by Loughlin. For Halifax former, Saints players John Fieldhouse, twice, and Mark Bailey scored tries.

25 Years Ago
14th March 1987, Leigh 8 Saints 14 (Challenge Cup Semi Final at Wigan)
Relegation threatened Leigh, coached by former Saints boss Billy Benyon almost caused an upset in a tense semi final. Saints swept into a 14-2 half time lead with tries by Kevin McCormack, Chris Arkwright and Andy Platt and a conversion by Paul Loughlin. Leigh hit back to close the gap to six points and continued to pose problems for Saints. It was left to Barrie Ledger to save Saints, when he raced back to tackle John Henderson as he broke clear down the centre of the field and looked likely to score.

22nd March 1987, Warrington 17 Saints 17.
After the Challenge Cup semi final victory, Alex Murphy made a number of changes for the mid week game at the Boulevard, which resulted in a 36-22 defeat, and made more changes for the trip to Wilderspool. Warrington opened the scoring with an “8 point” try before Saints hit back with a Mark Elia try and three Paul Loughlin goals. Phil Veivers increased Saints lead with a try in the second half, but Warrington crossed twice and a Paul Bishop dropped goal gave them a one point lead. Bernard Dwyer then rescued a point for Saints with a dropped goal.

30 Years Ago
14th March1982, Saints 18 Warrington 10.
Saints produced arguably their best display of the season and for the second consecutive game prevented their opponents from scoring a try. In heavy rain Saints trailed 8-6 at half time, Clive Griffiths having landed three penalties. With Graham Liptrot having been taken off with a suspected broken jaw it was left to Gary Bottell to fill the hooker duties. In the second half, Neil Holding broke the deadlock with a try form half back then added a second ten minutes later. Clive Griffiths converted both give him six goals from six attempts.

21st March1982, Fulham 2 Saints 17.
Saints first trip to Craven Cottage saw them prevent the opposition from crossing their line for the third consecutive game. In a close first half Peter Glynn crossed for a try, which Clive Griffiths converted, then after a Fulham penalty, Neil Holding added a dropped goal. Fulham made a bright start to the second half but tries by Holding and Steve Bayliss, both converted by Griffiths, increased Saints lead, before Holding rounded off the scoring with another dropped goal.

35 Years Ago
20th March 1977, Saints 13 Workington Town 7.
Workington were the most successful of the four promoted clubs and had reached the Lancashire Cup final. Saints, with a Challenge Cup semi final the following week, were without the injured Eddie Cunningham and George Nicholls. The sides were level at half time, 5-5 after Peter Glynn had crossed for Saints. Town went ahead early in the second half but tries by Roy Mathias and centre Dave Hull ensured a sith consecutive win for Saints.

26th March 1977, Leeds 7 Saints 2. (Challenge Cup Semi Final at Wigan)
Saints hopes of a return to Wembley ended in disappointment in heavy rain at Central Park. Already missing George Nicholls, they lost Dave Chisnall with a head injury in the first half. Saints looked to have gone ahead when Geoff Pimblett caught a Harry Pinner “up and under” to touchdown by the side of the post, but referee, Fred Lindop, ruled it out for offside. Leeds dropped a goal to open the scoring, before a Pimblett penalty put Saints in front. Leeds then added a penalty to lead 3-2 at half time. Saints had most of the territorial advantage in the second half before Leeds broke away to score the only try of the game. A late dropped goal completed the scoring.

40 Years Ago
18th March 1972, Saints 16 Dewsbury 14.
After a comfortable mid week win over Hull KR, Saints had to withstand a second half revival from an ever improving Dewsbury who were looking to make the play offs for the second consecutive season. Saints led 14-2 at the break after tries by Jeff Heaton and John Wills. Kel Coslett converted both and added two penalties. Saints only points in the second half came from a Coslett goal, as Dewsbury, led by Mick Stephenson and Nigel Stephenson staged a comeback and almost wrecked Saints unbeaten home league record.

24th March 1972, Salford 0 Saints 7.
With games coming thick and fast, Saints made a number of changes and gave a debut to former Barrow ARL player Brian Coward in the centre. A first half try by Graham Rees, against his former club, converted by Kel Coslett, gave Saints a half time advantage. In the second half Geoff Pimblett added dropped goal. It was the first time during the season that Salford’s scoring machine David Watkins had failed to score.
