The MECCA of school rugby will have three ex pupils on the coaching staff in the upcoming Lions tour of south africa.

Shaun Edwards
Craig White
Paul Stridgeon

Just got me thinking how many RL and RU players as my former school produced over the years.

Fisher's certainly done its bit over the years. It's a pity other Wigan high schools don't still follow their example.

According to my grandson, there are several schools in the borough where football is now treated as the equal of TGG.

Many sports masters of the Wigan past would turn in their graves.

I was going to mention Grego as a former SJF rugby league legend but it looks like you got there first... icon_biggrin.gif

Out of all High Schools in the borough, due to it's geographical position you'd think John Fisher would be a footballing school. I found it hard to play against Fisher without noticing Springfield Park in the background.

St Josephs in Howich?

Sean Long attended for a short period too.

Also, Liam Grundy and Martin Ainscough who both play for Rochdale went there too.

yes ainscough was year below me, went to leigh for a bit. I know of liam same year as his sister at primary etc...

there's quite a few good whelley-based players around my age and below who are/were decent enough to get a good run in academies.


Lets just say the Bolton schools championship in 1997 was 1 sided.
