Hampo for me.
Best catcher of a high ball I've ever seen.
Also remember a big hit he put in on Gary Mercer in the cup final against Wire that left Mercer shaking on the floor like he was having a fit.

Good player in attack not here long enough to see if he had true grit , a bit of an enigma back in Aus could be great or disappear at times , think our game over here suited his style ,did he play full back a lot for us?

Yes nearly all his stint as I recall. Came with Les Davidson. Lovely balanced runner and a sublime chip and chase, used to chip the ball with the outside of the boot.

Did he? He was signed as replacement for Kevin Iro (Les Davison for Adrian Shelford). I felt sure Phil Blake played his games at centre for Wigan. :doz:
1. Hampson
2. Radlinski
3. (very controversially) Andre Stoop
