Maybe we should give him a chance these next few games coming up. There's enough experience on the field to help him through and even if it's only 20 minutes, it will show whether the hype is worth it or not.

Played more times for the 'A' team than Paul Fletcher and Norman Francis combined didn't he? Back in the day when Friday night RL at Headingley was enjoyable




I remember a photo of him in the YEP the day he signed forms for Leeds. Stood alongside Leeds skipper Peter Tunks IIRC. I also recall he was once out injured because he'd spilt a pan of boiling chip fat all over his arm.


I was referring to him earlier, yes.

Played cricket against VF a couple of times. Intimidating sight seeing him come in to bowl off a long run, less intimidating after the ball left his hand. Similar at rugby, as it turned out.

I'm surprised he got to the end of his run up with the ball still in his hand. Now you're going to tell me he fielded in the slips

Vince Fawcett was typical of the big kid for his age that plays rugby because of where he comes from, not because of his talent or ability.

I seem to remember Dougie asking if he had thumbs after a very short appearance at HKR one year....
