It'd be really interesting to hear his view of what happened. He was never as fast as he sometimes looked - awareness made him get into position faster than most. A bit like Tomkins in his younger days.
Quote: Sal Paradise "One of the greatest player in the SL era - shame he was ruined in RU - he didn't run across the grass he glided across it. The best body swerve I have seen in a modern player - genius.'"
Cliff Lyons was my favorite effortless player. Didn't have the speed of Harris but if those sort of stats are available from thet era I'll bet his try assist was through the roof
Iestyn was an unbelievable player. I don't think he was that fast but he was fast enough.
He could break defenders ankles with his swerve and step and he had tremendous vision to open up defences. Just pure class. Serious class.
When the late great Graham Murray, RIP Muzz, got his hands on him and put him to full back it really brought the best out of him.
He was magnificent was Iestyn and it's a shame his return to league was handled the way it was.but it doesn't take away his brilliance in the blue and amber.
