I thought there was a well documented story about him missing out due to perceived selection bias despite him playing his opposite number (who got the gig) off the park in the preceding game before selection?

Yes he did miss out but scored 5 tries in the match you are on about.

Ronnie Duane in the centres was another player that hit the line at the same sort of speed as Mark Roberts and with the same sort of power, he was another player that had his career ruined by injury just like Mark Roberts.

Remember Rhino well. Great memories.

i grew up round the corner from duanes and remember that even when they were in their early teens they were a right pair of units!

ronnies injury whilst playing for gb certainly finished him as a player but prior to that he was very useful indeed.

Woolston lad? Like me.

yes indeed.

Unless I misread it, it asks for the best British players to have played for Warrington, not the best who were capped.



Parry was a great halfback, I selected him just a head of Ken Kelly as he was a one club man (and a Wiganer )

You cant be serious....... it's only a matter of time before Wainwright get's a mention
