I agree with Side Burns, Mark Gleesons technique of 'bend to a right angle and hope you dont get crushed' always made me laugh. Never really missed many either.

as an unruly teenager i once pinched a botttle of milk from bob ecccles' front doorstep, he saw me legged after me in his y fronts tackled me on a lawn abit further down the street and taught me a valuable lesson..........don't mess with big bob's milk! i was mortified as a wire fan i couldn't really tell people but i was mightily impressed with his defence that day! |

Mike Wainwright was very good defensively, very rarely missed a tackle and never shriked his responsibility. In a time when we were not known for our defence when he was on the field along with Chris Leikvol we were solid up the middle, not flash, but two players I expect the team appreciated for their work ethic.
