| Quote: vikings 4 ever "Adam Bibey - Widnes paid a fee for him and Neil Kelly described him as one of the top forward prospects in the country
When I was doing a bit of googling I noticed this academy team from 2003 which beat the Aussie Institute of Sport team.
England Academy
Ian Hardman (St Helens) Try
I was at that game and Karl Pryce was (literally and figuratively) head and shoulders above anybody else on the pitch bar James Graham
Graham has captained England and Pryce is possibly the biggest disappointment in Super League due to the lack of delivering on huge potential

Nicky Royle, though he's making a nice living for himself on the RU 7s circuit.

Yes, well they certainly paid a significant fee. Think Barrow released him at the end of last season? |

When you're a Bradford fan there's always a light at the end of the tunnel.
Unfortunately it's usually an oncoming train:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_7741.jpg |

Pryce is, without a shadow of a doubt, one of the biggest disappointments to come through Bradford's academy.
He's got size, he's got power, he's got pace and he can kick like a mule. I remember a game he had for Bradford where he kicked out from under the sticks and it didn't bounce until it was pushing the oppositions 40m line.
He had bags of talent and potential, but he was just too lazy and lacked, and IMO still lacks, the heart to make a decent player in either code. |

Still, he's probably the only name that'll get mentioned on this thread currently seeing to a Minogue ![]()
and becoming a bit of a local celeb here in aus on the back of it...
he was introduced on a TV sports quiz recently as an ex GB international... I was/ am not at all sure that is true???

Had the odd game for Ormskirk RU around 2005 and looked pretty good - Not exactly what you expect from a lad who had a pro contract thrown at him when he was 8, though. |

They missed out the word "Academy".
Not sure he actually played a game in the top division of English rugby league? |
