Keith Fielding of Salford could also run a bit. I wonder what he could have achieved with a more glamorous club. I think he also did well in various versions of Superstars.
Maybe glamorous was the wrong word. In terms of big names they certainly had plenty (David Watkins and Mike Coulson come to mind) but apart from a Challenge Cup Final in 1969 (against Castleford. I lived near Pontefract at the time. The town was divided with the Featherstone half wanting Salford to win) they were more style than substance and never quite reached the heights. A case of the whole being less than the sum of the parts.
