Johnny Maloney used to turn up for training in a Rolls Royce,don't think the money was "that" good in those days.

Cheers Wilf. I only asked because I thought I was imagining it 'again'



See Mike, I told you there was some resemblance to yourself.....Back in the day.

prekkie was also a useful kicker

Director of his Dads engineering firm in Dewsbury I think! The kids used to guard it for him whilst he was at training!

I remember his hair best as I said but Batley rings a bell now you mention it!

When Hull got him i remember asking a player what he was like,the player said "he can kick goals,he can kick goals, and he can kick goals.From this i drew the assumption that the only thing he was good at was kicking goals and his stay at Hull soon ended.

Tickle is very consistent , I was always impressed by Hewitt , Pearce and of Course Sammy !

Back in the 80s , I admired John Woods when at leigh - never seemed to miss a kick !

Ian Ball at Barrow was'nt too bad,

If we're talking about other teams, there's only one kicker for me - Frano Botica.

As for best goalkicking moments.....

Charlie Birdsall from the Threepenny Stand touchline in the final few minutes to draw the Derby in 1979.



Sammy's 2nd kick v Widnes in the 1980 Semi Final (see You Tube as previously referenced)



Danny Brough's kicking in the 2005 Final



Before my time, but I think Colin Hutton kicked a last minute goal from the touchline at Maine Road, in the late 1950's to win us the Championship Final (the Grand Final equivalent).



Finally, I always remember seeing David Marshall (not a great kicker) miss a penalty under the sticks at Craven Park in the mid to late seventies. As the local faithful cheered, imagine our joy as the ball rebounded off the posts for our winger to score under the posts.

Decent player. I remember he took us out of a John Player Semi Final one year. Not quite Featherstone at Wembley, but I don't think you could get a bet on Barrow before the game!

Agree. Of all the kickers I've seen, he was the best.

I remember in the game when Offiah got ten tries v Leeds, he kept deliberately scoring as far in the corner as possible just to test Botica. He just kept kicking them over!!
