Hampson - wanted teams to put the high ball up just to see him out jump them and clear it up
Gregory/Edwards - best half back combination ever,the master and the apprentice

The black Pearl or Dean Bell.

Although I used to have the weirdest dreams about Gregory and a huge fifty pence piece. He used to chase after me riding the 50p coin. Any dream analysts work that one out for me?

I know he could turn on a sixpence but thats just wierd

Is the black pearl Hanley or Renouf? I thought Renouf had that name as well, his autobiography's called The Pearl.

On Hanley what was the story about his fitness regime? I remember reading somewhere that he never did weights with the rest of the squad. He'd worked out his own circuit training thing using body weight and a medicine ball that kept him in shape, so the coaching staff just let him do his own thing for fitness.

The Pearl - Renouf.
The Black Pearl - Hanley.

He was given that nickname when he signed for Balmain in the off season.

Gill was my favourite as a kid but Hanley was the best.

I was only lucky enough to catch the end of it, but Edwards for me.

Boston, unless you're on about another glory era...

Gene Miles.
His combination with Offiah was exceptional.

, my favourite then, and still my favourite today, others have come close, McTigue, Ashurst, Gregory, Bell, Hanley, but none have yet reached the great man. (IMO)

Am I on the Warrington board?

no but the thread was originally

Mark Cannon.

Pretended he was a second rower to get in the team.

Took his place at Stand off in the cup replay against Bramley (After a Shaun Kilner drop goal attempt went inches wide in the last minute of the first game).

Got us to Wembley that year and effectively started the glory era.

Replaced the next year however by the even better Brett Kenny.
