Quote: Big Steve "Love watching Bevan probably more than almost any player since the mid 80's when I first started watching Wigan.
Roberts sticks out as someone who was very similar to how Bevan plays but such a shame he got injured as I'm sure he would have been held in similar esteem if we had seen him for a few seasons.
I can't go past Hanley as the best Wigan player I've seen though. Probably the English player the Aussies respected most even to this day.'"
Boston was the best and the player the Aussies respected most.
Has any other player taken the MOM in the WCC, the Lance Todd and the Harry Sunderland (Rob Burrows in Bev's case) in a single season before? Can't be too many.
French is one those players who seems to see things other players do not, his rugby sense is a step above many players - allied with lightning pace off the mark and step make him a threat from nothing. Plus he works so hard in defense as well, we are lucky to have a player like that.
I think the club bringing over his brother and uncle for the game really hit him emotionally (in a good way) - such a classy move by the club.
