Yes,Kingston on Thames. I used to live nearby Ok, Cheers I remember the Radio Commentary going on about Martin Offiah playing for London nearly Crashing to the fence which was about a Few feet from the Try line. That's the only London RL Ground that I never visited. |

I seem to remember that it was at Kingsmeadow that Offiah scored for us in a cup game against London, but there was controversy about whether it counted as his 500th try. Something about a number of earlier tries not counting.

Really hope there is a win this weekend and then against the Thugpack as would hate to travel to London needing a win to stay n the hunt for automatic safety, it just has nanna skin written all over it.
Have a soft spot for London and would love to see them back in SL and doing well.

Was it the stadium that we played London Broncos in the Challenge Cup Yes it is. The slightly sad thing about the ground now is that Kingstonian FC now longer play there. AFC Wimbledon purchased the ground during their rise, and then a few years back sold it to Chelsea to help fund Wimbledon’s new stadium (in development). The ground was extended during that time and Chelsea had no need for Kingstonian to play there, so they had to find an alternative home. There was a story about it in The Guardian a while back: www.theguardian.com/football/2017/apr/25/kingstonian-kingsmeadow-lost-stadium-chelsea-afc-wimbledon. |

Massive unit who plays prop in RU, I did say as a final remark though if you get the chance to ruck Solomonas face and he just laughed  |
