Best uncapped number 7 ever. Initially suffered because of Murphy and Tommy Bishop. For the World Cup in 1974 Alan Bates of Dewsbury was picked in front of him. Bates wasn't fit to tie Parry's boot laces. A few days after the selection we played Dewsbury at Wilderspool. Unfortunately Bates didn't play as Parry turned on a master class and scored 5 tries.

Did Gary Sanderson ever play for GB?

I'll second that!

Ahead of Lockyer and Minichello?

Brian Bevan

Didn't really want to compare against who the had to compete with. Because, naturally, the better ones got into the team. Just trying to think of people who could have done the business, but never had the chance.

Valid point by yourself tho!

Paul Wood

I thought Woody had played once for GB, or was he just in a squad?

Tony Thorniley

I've a vague recollection of the game I think you're on about Teesside

I'm sure it was for a B side on a Wednesday night, against the touring NZers of 02, and surprise, surprise Woody got a serious injury that night

Jimmy Muir.
