MOMENT OF THE DECADE - RETURN TO THE CHAMPIONSHIP 2017
OUR BLOCKBUSTING RETURN TO THE CHAMPIONSHIP IN 2017 is number four on our short list
Following their title win in France, when the Championship fixtures were announced in November, Hornets were dealt a tough opening period. Hosting Championship stalwarts, Dewsbury and promotion favourites, Hull KR sandwiched between trips to Bradford and Featherstone there was some worry amongst supporters.
There needn’t be, as Hornets swept aside Dewsbury 46-0 in round one, before heading to Odsal and taking Bradford apart in a second half rout.
The week after, Hornets narrowly missed out at home against Hull KR before travelling to Post Office Road and recording a historic one-point win in the mud.
