Lets not forget all the Martyns, Mick would have been a wow these days, Tommy Snr was a master ball player and Tommy jnr was a great player.
In his day Kev Ashcroft was up there with the best hookers

He's still only 23 though so a long career still ahead of him. I think he could and will go on to do great things at Wire and hopefully for England/GB.

Well I remember watching both of them and I disagree. Chris edges it for me.

Thats a fair point . I also agree with an earlier poster about Dave Chisnall. Now he was not just big he had a step on him and was fast too. Course like Murph Woods and Des he ended up at Warrington. Sickening it is all about money isn't it. Nothing ever changes in that regard.

Like I said in an earlier post frank nothing changes over the years we have always been a feeding ground for the bigger clubs and because of our geographical position and stature in the game always will be

John Woods of those I've seen. Head and shoulders above anything I've seen at this club.

Quote: FredParky "In my time (1964 - present) John Woods, local talent, he had it all speed quickness of thought good hands great rugby brain great defensively too and a fantastic goalkicker, if he had taken the game seriously he would have been a RL great.
Des Drummond, not a natural RL player but boy did he learn fast and elusive, slight of stature but very very quick, his martial arts training helped him in his defence.
Alex Murphy the best ever RL player he had everything.

In recent times Neil Turley his record speaks for itself, Tommy Martyn well past his prime when he came to us but what a player.'"


I'd add Mickey Martin (look at his try scoring record for a second rower and if he'd caught every pass tha came his way he'd have more than doubled that) And what about Charlie Pawsey and Stan Owen - loads of 'em, but fans only rememer the backs and never the donkeys up front. And where does chris Hill fit in? But the greatest,Ihave to admit,was the mighty Alex Murphy
