appetite – take a look at some of the Magic Weekend’s magic matches…2007 -
Bradford 38-42 Leeds Jordan Tansey (left) of the Rhinos celebrates with
team-mates after scoring the match-winning try in injury time Cast your memories
back to 2007 when the Magic Weekend was known as Millennium Magic.Leeds and
Bradford walked out for a grandstand finish in Cardiff, ready to renew their
Yorkshire rivalries a long way from home. What happened next went down in Super
League folklore.The two sides shared 13 tries, Michael Platt scoring twice for
the Bulls and Brent Webb grabbing a hat-trick for the Rhinos, but the final
minute is the one that sticks out.With Bradford leading 38-36, the clock hit 79,
but referee Steve Ganson awarded a penalty to Leeds for offside.Kevin Sinfield
lined up 40 metres out on the left touchline and let fly. The kick looked good
before falling just short, eventually hitting the bar - but Jordan Tansey
followed up and touched down.Despite Tansey being in front of the kicker, the
four-pointer was awarded. Cue pandemonium, and a Sinfield cartwheel to boot!2008
- Huddersfield 34-36 Warrington Stuart Reardon of Warrington is tackled by Eorl
Crabtree of Huddersfield The 2008 Magic Weekend saw another 70+ point thriller,
but this time it was Huddersfield and Warrington sharing a classic to open the
event.The Wolves looked set for a fifth straight Super League defeat, finding
themselves 22-6 down at half-time thanks to Huddersfield tries from Michael
Lawrence, Luke Robinson, Andy Raleigh and Rod Jensen.After the break, Jensen
could have put his side further in front, but dropped the ball with the line
beckoning.Cue the Warrington comeback. Four tries in 18 minutes, from Stuart
Reardon, Lee Briers and two from Andy Bracek got them in front before another
fine individual Briers effort earned the Wolves the two points.2010 - Leeds
34-30 Wakefield Ryan Hall scored in the famous Leeds comeback A move to
Edinburgh brought seeded games for the Magic Weekend, but that didn’t stop West
Yorkshire rivals Leeds and Wakefield serving up a Murrayfield epic in 2010.John
Kear’s side took a chilly Scotland by storm and they certainly caught Leeds cold
in the first half. Ben Jeffries and Damien Blanch went over early on, before a
host of errors from Leeds handed Wakefield further initiative as they took a
commanding 28-10 lead.Leeds struck a late first half blow, Ryan Hall going over
in the corner before Chris Clarkson scored just after break. Despite a Jeffries
penalty, Leeds took control, Ryan Hall crossing for his second to further close
the gap.With just two minutes left on the clock, they completed the comeback,
Keith Senior’s break allowing Brent Webb to send over veteran Aussie Danny
Buderus for the match winning score.2011 - St Helens 16-16 Wigan When is Magic
Weekend on Sky? Magic Weekend is back at St James Park and there are a host of
ways to watch it live on Sky Sports. Back to Cardiff for the 2011 version and
one of rugby league’s tastiest derbies finally delivered a Magic Weekend
classic.It didn’t look that way with 65 minutes gone, though, with Wigan
storming into a 16-0 lead, debutant Ryan Hoffman, Harrison Hansen and then
George Carmont all going over. But the Saints, having had several tries
disallowed, struck back.Jon Wilkin started the recovery, powering over from
close range before Tony Puletua crossed soon after. And when Francis Meli went
over in the corner, Jamie Foster had the chance to win it but pulled his
conversion wide.Both sides threatened last-gasp drama, Sam Tomkins and Kyle
Eastmond missing late drop goals, so all square they finished at 16-all.2011 -
Bradford 28-32 LeedsAny fan who stayed for both days in 2011 certainly got value
for money. After the Lancashire ding-dong on Saturday, it was Leeds and
Bradford’s turn in Sunday’s closer.With previous Magic Weekend history between
the pair, there was soon another chapter to add. Mick Potter’s side put in a
terrific performance, building a 28-10 lead with 20 minutes left, mainly thanks
to Elliott Whitehead’s hat-trick. But Leeds, in what was now their customary
Magic Weekend comeback, rallied and upped the tempo.Ben Jones-Bishop scored his
second while Kylie Leuluai and Rob Burrow also went over. With Bradford leading
28-26, there was still another twist to come.Two minutes left and Jones-Bishop
raced down the wing, sensing a hat-trick opportunity. He fly-hacked through,
only to be pulled back by opposite number Gareth Raynor. Upstairs it went and
Richard Silverwood took an age to settle the game. But T-R-Y he chose and yet
again Leeds snatched victory from the jaws of defeat.2012 – Hull FC 30-32 Hull
KR Shannon McDonnell (centre) of Hull KR runs at Tony Martin (left) and Richard
Horne (right) of Hull The Hull derby was a regular Magic Weekend highlight, with
the two sides playing out some memorable matches. but with Manchester the new
setting, the two sets of fans hadn’t seen anything until 2012.A tight first-half
saw the Airlie Birds lead 18-12, Brett Seymour, Richard Horne and Willie Manu
going in for the black-and-whites while Craig Hall and Shannon McDonnell went
over for the Robins.Hull FC extended that lead after the break, Tony Martin
crashing over and when Jordan Turner collected Seymour’s kick, the job seemed
complete.But Hull KR weren’t in the mood for rolling over as Sam Latus went over
first, before Michael Dobson’s converted try got them to within two.With seconds
remaining, the points were snatched thanks to a truly special effort. David
Hodgson got the ball on his own 30, beat two defenders and raced clear, sending
the red-and-white faithful into delirium while FC set off on a miserable trip
back up the M62.2012 - Huddersfield 34-38 Salford Adam Sidlow celebrates scoring
a try for Salford After the dramatic Saturday events, a few of the more
bleary-eyed supporters were treated to a 13-try belter from Huddersfield and
Salford, the perfect Sunday hangover cure.Salford hadn’t won in six Super League
games, but they edged a bruising first half 22-16, thanks to a Joel Moon double
and scores from Sean Gleeson and Jodie Broughton.Two close-range tries from Eorl
Crabtree ensured the Giants hit the front but another Broughton effort and a
brace from Adam Sidlow gave Salford that 38-34 lead.Late on, Jason Chan broke
the line and went clear for the Giants, but his pass went loose and Salford
could finally celebrate a memorable victory.2013 - Hull FC 22-16 Hull KRBack in
Manchester for 2013 and the Hull fans were hoping for a more relaxed day out
than the year before. But nobody could prepare them for what was to come. Magic
Moments Super League: The top 10 Magic Weekend moments Hull KR led 10-6 at the
break, Greg Eden and Craig Hall cancelling out Richard Whiting’s score. With
eight minutes left, Rovers led by 10. A Michael Dobson penalty and an Alex Brown
score seemed to have secured the win, but this time it was Hull FC who mustered
the comeback spirit.Tom Lineham was first to cross before Kirk Yeaman went over
for a try, eventually approved by the video referee. Daniel Holdsworth had the
chance to win it there and then with the conversion, but he fired wide and a
draw seemed the likely result.But Holdsworth then had a say in the game’s
defining moment, his high ball misjudged by Eden. Chris Green collected on the
bounce and dived over gleefully, and despite replays showing he was offside, the
try was awarded, ensuring Hull FC’s revenge was complete.Watch the Magic Weekend

Derek Rivers Jersey . Bozak and Clarkson
suffered the injuries in pre-training camp workouts, according to Carlyle, who
said they made "small amounts of improvement" from Friday to Saturday. After the
players were deemed less than 100 per cent by doctors after Thursdays medical
testing, the Leafs held them out of on-ice testing and are being cautious.
Derek Rivers Youth Jersey . Although the deal
cannot be made official until the free agent moratorium period is lifted on July
10, Patterson has agreed to a three-year, $18 million extension to remain in
Toronto, sources confirm to TSN.DENVER -- Michael Cuddyer homered to extend his
hitting streak to 25 games, Jhoulys Chacin pitched eight scoreless innings and
the Colorado Rockies beat the slumping San Francisco Giants 4-1 on Friday night.
Wilin Rosario also went deep and Jordan Pacheco had three hits for the Rockies,
who moved within three games of Arizona in the NL West. Buster Posey homered
among his three hits for the Giants, who have lost five straight and seven of
their last eight. Cuddyers streak is the longest in the majors this season and
extended his franchise record. He has reached base safely in 44 straight games,
also a club record. Cuddyer flied out to left in the first inning before
connecting in the third. He worked the count to 2-0 before lacing a 79 mph cut
fastball just over the scoreboard in right to give the Rockies a 3-0 lead.
Rosario followed with a blast to left to make it 4-0. Chacin (7-3) made it stand
up and earned his fourth straight win with another standout performance. The
right-hander has emerged as Colorados best pitcher in June. He came within an
out of a shutout against Philadelphia on June 16 and threw seven scoreless
innings in a win over Washington last week. He has thrown 15 straight scoreless
innings and has allowed just two runs in his last 27 innings. He was sharp again
Friday, scattering three hits and walking three to help the Rockies snap a
three-game skid. He retired 10 in a row after the Giants had first and second
with one out in the fourth, then got Brandon Crawford to ground out with two on
to end the seventh inniing.
Deatrich Wise Jr. Youth Jersey. Giants
starter Barry Zito (4-6) allowed four runs and 10 hits while striking out three
in 5 1-3 innings. The veteran left-hander is 0-3 in his last five starts. His
last win came against Oakland on May 30 and he is 0-5 in six road starts this
season. The defending champions have struggled to score runs during their slide.
San Francisco has managed just 17 runs in its last seven games and just avoided
being shut out for the seventh time this season. The Rockies took a 1-0 lead in
the first on Carlos Gonzalezs RBI double. Two innings later, Pacheco led off
with a single and Cuddyer followed with his 14th home run of the season. Two
pitches later, Rosario hits his 13th. Posey led off the ninth with his 11th home
run of the year off Rex Brothers to spoil the shutout. It was the first run
Brothers allowed in 32 appearances spanning 30 innings. The Giants got the tying
run to the plate but Crawford grounded out to second to end the game. NOTES:
Colorado OF Dexter Fowler (right hand) was a late scratch from the lineup.
Fowler has missed the last two games and three of the last four. ... The Rockies
activated closer Rafael Betancourt from the 15-day DL and optioned RHP Juan
Nicasio to Triple-A Colorado Springs. ... The Giants reinstated LHP Eric Surkamp
from the 60-day DL and optioned him to Triple-A Fresno. He will be added to the
roster when he reports on Monday, when he will make a start, the team said. ...
Giants RHP Santiago Casilla (cyst on his right knee) threw 30 pitches in a
simulated game Friday.
