i thought what happened on total eclipse is that the moffatt crew didn't manage the moves in a 1 day flying visit so decided the dunnster hadn't done it?
none were more shocked than me when he jumped on superman last year n was gettin quite close to the move

Dunne was one of the best climbers of his generation & stuff like Partheon & New Statesman are amazing. However, was in Chorro in Jan & saw the Hari Kari cave... I can't really see him hauling his bulk up a 45-50 degree overhand for 40 metres. If he did do so then I'm really sorry to doubt him. Also what about Total Eclipse - Moffat reckoned no harder than 8c, then broke hold, then Dunne repeated it at the same 9a grade... :? The legacy of amazing routesspeaks for itself though.
Sheffield-centric jealousy is all it ammounts to....
