Quote: davids "A few forgotten from back in the day...
Bradford - Gary Mercer had a great few seasons for us (particularly 1991-92 when we ended 4th, above strong Widnes and Leeds teams) when we were mostly a mediocre team. Shame he went off to Leeds.
Widnes - David Lyon, as above, but also left at the end of 1991-92, to Saints. Largely forgotten about because Lee Penny stepped up to replace him, and Lyon struggled with injuries at Saints, but he was solid defensively and one of the best 'attacking' full backs I've seen, joining the line to great effect.'"
Lyon also had a howitzer of a kick, always good for a few extra yards.
