Fred Webster getting added today

Thank God for that, if this is to be a properly representative Hall of Fame you simply can't ignore people who would walk into the thing backwards if they'd played in the last 50 years. Just look at his stats, his international appearances, his length of service, the captain of the club's first major trophy winning side, he's such an easy choice.

The club cant trace any descendants. I wonder if the club are using the pandemic to induct deceased players who's relatives are not available? There are a few more from that era Frank Bucket Young and Dinny Campbell etc

Absolutely. His record is magnificent for the club. A true Hall of Famer.

what were the names on the 99 shirt a bit of a hall of fame of its time

Superb inductee - played in an era when the forwards were really tough - IIRC didn't they form a scrum at every tackle? His records stands up against former Leeds player - to play a big part in an ashes test series win down under is some achievement.

This concept is a wonderful thing it just needs to induct players that truly deserve to be there on their achievements on the field.

Good on yer Freddie, can’t be many around who saw the likes of Clues, Bath and Ryan.

Sad to see Les Dyl not looking too well these days. Great player, fully deserving of his place in the HoF.

Clues was well before my time too but I did know Trevor Foster very well who played against Clues many times. Trevor rated Arthur as one of the best second rowers in the world in the 40s. He was a real character too.

I do not agree with that first sentence whatsoever.

And Murray did rate him, and vice versa, Barrie was coming back from a serious leg break when Murray took over and struggling to find form hence was not first choice, but in 99 under Murray barrie was first choice and was sensational and arguably had his best year.

Les Dyl

Only saw him at the back end of his days early 80’s and was already a bit past it, but some player in the 70’s by all accounts.
