I remember newy taking toa Kohe love (sp) apart and Warrington moving him to the other centre and then Iro do the same tbing to him

Newlove and Iro, in the same side ! To be mentioned in the same breath as Jamie Lyon and Scott Gibbs. We were spoilt for centres. I hope Percival does carry on developing and avoids injury, but he's got big boots to fill in the pantheon of great Saints No.3s and 4s.

With Long and Martyn in the halves, KC at 9 and Sculthorpe at loose forward. Ridiculous.

We must've paid the wives well in them days.

Seems likely. Although we did used to load our star quality predominantly into those pivot and backline positions. Despite all of those stellar players we never seemed to have more than one good prop at a time (until the 2006 powerhouse, that is). I think that was one of the main reasons we would occasionally get spanked in the Millward days.

Let's just hope we can keep hold of him and tie him down to a long term contract.

Always remember newy at the final whistle always jogging straight off at Knowsley Road and down the tunnel. When questioned why he simply said he needed to get back to Fev to feed his pigeons before bed. Priceless

Top quality player & worth every penny. Signings like Newy made Saints the team we are today, little doubt in that
