Idle & McDermott were machines but as a tackling full back Trevor Midgley was rarely beaten. JOHN Burke was pretty handy too

I rember the incident cyclone mentions, I think it was shown on Scrumdown.

They are the unsung hero's, the tackling machines.
Nigel Bell is a gimme but John Glancy alongside him was a good portion of the engine room late 80's early 90's
In later years I thought Mortimer and Demetrieu went the extra mile to make a tackle.
Ray Price had proper damaging technique.
I would also mention Paul Mallinder, but we don't really count a knockout punch as a tackle these days...lol

Do remember Hegarty putting in an amazing tackle on wing at Batley but also remember some big hits by Aussie Geoff Gerrard in his spell at Wakefield. Pound for pound there cant be many better tacklers than Danny Brough but overall would go for Trever Skerett.

Surprised that nobody has mentioned Bob Haigh !Thought some of the "oldies" would remember him.
