| Quote: Bulls Boy 2011 "8 if your being precise. But I did/do own a wonderful device called a Video Player/Recorder.......some of the games I recorded featured him and I occasionally watch them from time to time. I have no prejudices against players unless they are damn right dirty. Unfortunately Sampson was back then, had his great moments but then messed it up with unnecessary dirty play. Aww you've just ruined Christmas
I assume you held the same limited views over Karl Fairbank, Jimmy Lowes & Kelvin Skerrett after watching those videos?

| I was lucky enough to be at Keith's first game. Eddie Tees had slung his hook and Keith - just 16 - was brought into the first team. I remember his first kick at goal. The crowd was silent - nervously wishing him to do well. We needn't have worried. He went on to score 27 points in the match and a legend was born. In the same match Arnie Long ran in 5 tries. Never seen that from a prop before or since but, sadly for Arnie, he was somewhat over shadowed.
The arguments about Keith's pace matter not. The game has changed but he was the best I ever saw. All you can be is as good as you can be when your time comes. Keith played the game with calmness and modesty and was a true sportsman. When you see some of the sportsmen who recieve MBEs and the like it makes it a criminal shame that they seldom go to the ones who deserve them most.

| I saw that match too, the most interesting thing about it, in a way, is can you imagine a sixteen-year old getting brought into the first team today?

| I saw the match as well, who would have believed he would have gone on and played nearly 600 matches of such a high consistency, I believe he was only substitute on a handful occasions and most of those in the latter years. For a 16 year old to become a permanent fixture was amazing. A true legend no wonder fans call him Sir Keith.
