Quote: MattyB "How many were there for his debut at Widnes? Bloody cold wednesday evening, Inga came on in the 2nd half, looked about two stone overweight and waaaayyy of the pace. I remember after 10 minutes he was huffing and puffing about with his hands on his knees.

From that to the pique of fitness he was when he stormed through about 4 Aussie defenders at a packed Central Park.

Awesome and a great credit to him for knuckling down, a true winner (on and off the field)!!'"


I was there with my dad. Standing behind the post in the open rain. He looked off the pace as he ran on. It was a try scoring debut wasnt it?

To the left of the posts at the tunnel end - my only clear memory of the match other than that was the sheer size of his shorts when he ran on and everyone laughing at his ar$e the size of a barn door! It was often quoted over the next couple of years that his fitness regime and weightlifting programme had caused him to lose 6 inches off his waist but stay the same weight. What a beast.

One of my favourite players Inga, always entertaining to watch. There was one player in particular that he knocked senseless everytime he played him. I think it was Marvin Golden and he played centre for leeds? Only a fairly young lad i think but he seemed to get absolutely banjoed every time they faced each other. Also remember seeing him stood outside of central park wearing a full length leather duster type jacket, it was like looking at a brick wearing a coat.

Must admit that crossed my mind. Imagine a 'white' player saying he had never experienced such pain from a black kid.

Marvin Golden once tried to do a diving ackle on Martin Offiah as he was tearing down the wing at Central Park. Ended up diving head first into the advertising hoardings.
