Yeh I remember that, Sunday afternoon early to mid sixties I think it was amateur game or some sort of junior professional comp but he played for Castleford he was knick-named the dodger then I think. The programme was usually preceded by motor cycle scrambling which was usually won by Arthur Lampkin.

I remember that, and I think it was Bill Fallowfield that was the commentator, he probably gave him the name 'Roger the Dodger' as Castleford featured prominently on the programme.

| Many memories of Roger watching him play in Australia and England. Small in stature but a giant of the game at both club and international level.
One of the greatest ever players I watched play for a Hull club.
RIP Roger. Your song has ended but your melody will linger on.

| A sad day.
So sorry to hear that Rovers greatest has passed.
As a youngster I first saw him in 67, in the midst of the Airlie Birds fallow period. I was amazed at just how good he was. He was one of the reasons I loved the game. Seeing exceptional talent like his was really something, he was on a different level.
So many times I just wished we had him.
He was the reason they had the greatest period in their History. A true Legend of the game.
RIP Roger Millward.
thanks for the memories....well some of em.

Arthur Lampkin! - you've got a memory!!!
Used to love that comp'. IIRC Always muddy & a bit foggy (but that could've been our B&W telly)
The Dodger was the competition standout, & I think John Maloney was also in the in the Cas' side &
Chris Davidson in the Hull & district side.
R.I.P `Dodger' Rovers greatest, & a true legend of the game.

Bill Fallowfield there's a name from the past too and the man who I think the origins and introduction of the limited tackle rule were attributed to.
