it happened after he left us but his career ended abruptly after he had to have his jaw wired back together.

Gary Sanderson another who while a fantastic player for us could have been so much better had he not had massive back problems.
Ian Knott too falls into the same boat

Richard Ross- cracking stand off who ran A team games but a series of bad injuries finished his pro career. Would have made 1st team without a doubt.
Barry Peters - decent centre, cronic knee trouble.
Mark Knight - decent back rower, played one missed six. Ended up at Swinton I think.

RIchard Henare...ok he wasn't injury prone...but his off the field antics ruined what could have been a very good career.

Didn't William Webb Ellis pick up the ball and run, someone should really tell Rugby Union.

Mike Wernham at fullback; tidy player and could kick goals for fun.

Good call saw him progress through the school ranks playing kick and clap at Lymm made the game look so easy. |

SAINTS THE ORIGINAL AND PERENNIAL CHEATS
For sale full Saints kit (circa 1989). Shirts in pristine condition, but shorts badly soiled.
For 27 - 0 you get a trophy
For 75 - 0 you get sod all.
Wigan had eight in a row
Saints have five in a row:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_3076.jpg |

| Quote: magic piano "Dallas Meade is a good call - we never got to see what he was capable of...
Matt Rodwell was another who played injured throughout his unhappy service at Wire, could have been so much more if fully fit...
Mark Hilton would be one who although gave us years of good service could have been a much much better player had he stayed injury free, especially with his broken arms...
Jackie Edwards (Shaun's father) had his career cut short through knee injury too'"
Fantastic player who kept Murphy out of the Lancashire scrum half position at schoolboy level.
My mother recollects a crowd of 18,000 watching Lancs schoolboys v Yorkshire schoolboys at Saints.
The Lancs schoolboys included Jackie Edwards, Alex Murphy, David Bolton and Keith Holden in their backline. |

We're the first ones to starve, we're the first ones to die
The first ones in line for that pie-in-the-sky
And we're always the last when the cream is shared out
For the worker is working when the fat cat's about:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_12937.jpg |

I read that Jackie Edwards would've been a world beater had he not had to retire so young due to injury. He still made it into the '100 Warrington Greats' book.

Paul was my next door neighbour as a kid, nice guy & great player for Woolston Rovers, albeit if you've read Scully's autobiography he gets a bit of a ribbing
IIRC he played in the 1989 exhibition match vs Wigan in Milwaukee, USA. |

That would be the psychological injury of being a single father to 4 kids trying to ply his trade on the other side of the world from home & the support he needed?

He did play in Milwaukee - he was John Woods room mate.
He was working as a bricklayer at the Village Hotel with my old fella when he did his knee.
