I too was coaching under nines at the time (wonder if we know each other
) and just wonder if you caught Ellery on the wrong day. I had several dealings with him and he seemed to go out of his way to be helpful if he could. He was unbelievably fit and strong and a great player, but as others have said not the greatest coach.

I think the comments are a bit tongue in cheek. Chill man.

I joined the police in 1989 and quickly got told that Hanley had been one of the most prolific burglars in Leeds prior to his rugby days.
All credit to him for turning it around though.

| Unrelated and somewhat irrelevant but I don't think he could read or write when he was picked up for Bradford. A mates dad was tasked with helping him out with the old bill as and when the need arose.
Once in a generation player but if Hanley is the answer then I am not sure what the question is.

| Cheated half the time by hanging around 20 yards up field, and then lo and behold there he was in support of a break. The rules were tweaked to stop it I think.

If they changed the rules to stop him, he was clearly not cheating.

Well OK, not strictly cheating, took advantage of a situation which imo was unsporting, deliberately being "offside" up field even though he wasnt offside, or something like that

Come on PT, Hanley was a cheat, I bet even his mum would agree on that. Great player without question but an also a genius rule breaker.
