| Never saw Pawsey play for Leigh however, my Dads generation said he was the hardest! For me it has got to be Stan Owen.
Honourable mentions to; Dennis Boyd, Joe Walsh, Paul Grimes, Tony Cottrell, Des Drummond and anyone who goes on a Rugby Pitch!!  |

YOU CAN LEARN FROM THE PAST BUT NOT RELIVE IT.YOU CAN HOPE FOR THE FUTURE BUT CAN NEVER BE SURE THERE WILL BE ONE.: |

If you want to know who the players thought was the hardest player to play against (not just Leigh but every team)it was Des Drummond I know I`ve asked plenty of players from several differant teams.

Luck is a combination of preparation and opportunity
Just to avoid confusion Starbug is the username of Steven Pike
SOMEBODY SAID that it couldn’t be done
But he with a chuckle replied
That “maybe it couldn’t,” but he would be one
Who wouldn’t say so till he’d tried.
So he buckled right in with the trace of a grin
On his face. If he worried he hid it.
He started to sing as he tackled the thing
That couldn’t be done, and he did it!:9005.jpg |

He'd never be on the pitch these days, did he ever play without his nose busted? |

Didn't look too hard when the smallest man on the field knocked him out.

Alf was one of those quiet unsung heroes. No fuss, just did his job, and no prop got the better of him. |
