Lions at the Magpies, June 25th 2005
Before the First Test of the Lions Tour to New Zealand, there was a "warm up" game featuring Dods Lions v Dods All Blacks. Afterwards it was back to watch the game on the big screen at Standish Village Hall, with bacon sarnies prepared by the "Dods Widows" !
Now this is the team that would have won the series. Sir Clive, why didn't you listen?
Early optimism - Jonny kicks a penalty.....
....only for the Lions to lose 21-3. The crowd walks out leaving Lenny deflated and Roly Foster looking (understandably) shell shocked....... The Lions lost the series 3 - 0.
from www.dictionary.com: dod·der (intr.v.)
