Quote: DHM "Yet, there was a time when he was our most pacey and dangerous attacking player. And he did have gas. I saw him go the length of the pitch at Leigh chased by Des Drummond.'"


And what a grim time that was.
Was des Drummond pulling a fridge? He scored some belters at Headingley. The day Leigh won at Headingley to win the league he was brilliant.

Codebreakers well worth a watch. Great social history of our game and the Welsh, particularly the black Welsh players who helped make our game great.
RU converts not mentioned...Tuigamala, Botica, Fairburn, and for those who think Union forwards have no guts......ladies and gentlemen i give you Big Jim Mills

It certainly is worth watching, you can see why it made sense to play as Great Britain in those days, although you have to think a golden opportunity was missed at international level. A yearly tri nations should have been played between England, Wales and France. With the talent Wales had they’d have stood a real chance and Rugby League could have gained a real foothold in Wales.

Absolutely. And the game is much poorer now for not establishing the international game then.
