David Hobbs, Ron Wileman and Steve O`Neill.

The late Joe Price, who played for Warrington from the late sixties until the early seventies was an absolute animal on the pitch and made Make Nicholas look like a Saint.

Can't believe no one has mentioned Nick 'lead with the elbow' Fozzard?

Ryan Bailey
Terry Newton
Willie Mason

You just have

Shane Cooper, a sly coward.

can't believe nobody has mentioned Keith Senior (the man with the cheap shot on BJ Mather)

Shaun Edwards was a niggly bastward

Tommy Bishop, when he played for Sin Tellins.

He was alright for GB however.

My Dad says Jim Mills, some of the stories on that site aout him are hilarious though.

"Went to a dinner last month that had Andy Gregory as a guest speaker. He was asked to describe JIm Mills (who he had played with early in his career). He said that he was 'Tempermental - 50% temper, 50% mental'.

He talked about a game when he was on the bench. Mike Nicholas (spelling) hit Jim Mills with a high tackle early in the game, leaving him on the floor. The ref (Billy Thompson) called Nicholas out. As he did, Mills shouted "Leave him on Billy". Nicholas gets to the ref, who gives him a caution. He says "Am i not going off then?". The ref replied "Not yet, but very likely in the foreseeable future". He left on a stretcher soon after."

At the moment Cockayne is one of the nastiest players in the game. Not hard, not even niggly. Just a nasty person/player who wishes he wasn't as distinctly average as he is. HATE him!

Agree. But to be fair to him few players attracted as much 'attention' as he did, yet he never went awol during games.

Was he ever, I remeber him punching Karl Fairbank then standing behind Sonny Nickle when it all kicked off.
He also did ones of the worst things on the rugby field in his last game for Saints in a bad temperered clash with Halifax. Martin Ketteridge left the field with a badly broken nose and Saints substituted Cooper as he'd lost the plot.

Remember Lee Penny (Wire full-back in 90's) making some bad tackles in the early days of SL, though he may have just been a bit clumsy rather then dirty.

But an angel compared with the likes of Tim Street.

Paul Bishop
Tiwara Nikau
Les Boyd
Des Drummond (hard not dirty)
Toa Kohe Love (bad tackling technique tbf)
Paul Cullen
Adrian Morley (just hard)

There was nothing cheap about that shot. It was one of the best punches I've ever seen.

Didnt have a clue who he even played for until I looked it up.

So was he a dirty player?


You wouldnt think it when you hear him talk.....he seems a pretty articulate intelligent type of bloke

I lost alot of respect for morley the day he dropped down into the guts of micheal wainwright with both knees.

Come on mate... thats a bit hard on Moreley?

Dog acts like that are highly unusual from him. He doesnt usually do things like that.












Usually he just tries to take opposing players heads off with his high shots. Cost him his career at the Roosters.

he left roosters for a longer contract, give over Baz

He did.

Because he couldnt quite grasp the concept that a tackle round the head was a high shot.

Too right the Chooks wouldnt offer him a long contract... he spent a large proportion of his time there suspended or injured because of his playing style.... and a player who cant play through suspension or injury is not a good player to have on your books.

So you don't rate Morley then Barry.

Nope.

Morley disciplinary record at Warrington is very good.

kurt Sorenson is possibly the biggest cowardly thug I have ever seen on a Rugby pitch. You could always count on Kurt picking on the small blokes.
Les Boyd largely mended his ways at Warrington but he hated Wigan with a passion
