LIKE when The Wire overhauled mighty Australia at Wilderspool in 1978, Wolves' magical triumph against Brisbane Broncos will go down in folklore.
So we're doing a roll call!
Tell us, in your comments below, where were you the night Tony Smith's troops sent Wayne Bennett's boys packing?
Were you at the game, in the pub, watching on TV at home, on holiday, did you miss it, are you a fan who was cheering on from afar?
