Yes, they are asking for players who played with pride for Wakey so that rules the likes of Brough out and Lewis too, who, as good as he was, came for the money, end of.

Lewis certainly came for the money, but didn't con anyone. He didn't want to come and we just made a bid he said he couldn't refuse.
Anyone that watched him woul know he gave it his all.

I'd reword that a little,
Lewis got paid a lot for coming but he played the game for all the right reasons and he wore the shirt with pride.

| Just dug out my RL annual 93/94, which has the details of the Yorkshire Cup triumph. Our Squad for the final was;
Spencer
Jones
Mason
Benson
Wilson
Wright
Bagnall
Webster
Bell
Glancy
Price
Fritz
Slater
Subs; Conway and Goddard
Not a bad side at all I'd say and like all the teams of the early 90's, massive underachievers.

With some of the tackles Wally got taken out with and still came back for more, you couldnt argue with his commitment to the cause, could you!

I liked the story about him going in to a tackle and grabbing the big props balls to get him to hit him so that we could get a penalty to win the game. Maskill was meant to go in and help him out if it kicked off and he didn't realise he was serious so Lewis ended up taking a few extra for the cause.
If you are going to get hit you might as well use it to your advantage.
Tough guy as well as the best in the world at the time.

| I sat up and took notice of how tough he was when he sat Keith Tindall on his jacksie during his debut.
Tindall had lined him up and was looking to hit him late and high but Lewis saw it coming, put someone through a gap and got his retaliation in first.

Good call. The Perry Mason partnership was great.
