Quote Original Wolfie="Original Wolfie"Alex Murphy what a coach and player. What a character he was on the pitch, and still is off the pitch. My all time hero that guy.'"
Probably the greatest all round rugby player I ever saw but also one of the nastiest and underhand. The ultimate professional who would stop at nothing to get winning pay as easily as possible.
Was it the 68 CC Final when Wigan had no hooker and he and Billy Sayers took in turns to stand offside and get the ball back. It completely ruined the game for impartial spectators and caused a change in the rules?
Undoubtedly an all time great but not the stuff of heroes in my book.
