Quote ="sally cinnamon"John Bevan was only 22 when he signed for Wire so he must have been broken through in RU very young to have been a Welsh international and already done a Lions tour.'"
Back in the 70's, John Bevan was every Warrington schoolkids' hero.
At a time when RL players came in all shapes and sizes, he stood out like some athletic God.
He was an absolutely superb all round player.. Fantastic try scorer, great defence and also a fine rugby brain.
He is one of the few players from that era who you could say, with almost certainty, would be a top player in today's modern game.
