EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from Memory Lane Prints takes us back to the intense Castleford v Hull rugby match that took place on the 10th of September, 1949. The image captures a pivotal moment in the game where Bastow of Castleford finds himself right in the middle of a fierce scrimmage, fighting tooth and nail for possession. In this incredible display of determination, Bastow summons his inner strength and launches into a superhuman effort to place the ball over the line for what could have been an extraordinary try. However, faced with formidable opposition from Hull's players, his valiant efforts are ultimately thwarted as he loses control of the ball. The photograph encapsulates not only the physicality but also the raw emotion that permeates through every rugby league match. It serves as a reminder of how sport can push individuals beyond their limits while showcasing their unwavering passion for victory. Transporting us back to an era when rugby was played with grit and tenacity rather than flashy technology or extravagant stadiums, this snapshot offers a glimpse into sporting history. Bedford / Kemsley's expert lens has frozen this electrifying moment forever, allowing us to relive it time and time again.
