Hi everyone,
I found a signed rugby ball in a empty house I'm renovating at the moment just wondering if anyone can identify the signatures and have an idea of what year it is from.

Terry O Connor and Gary Connolly are there.

Ball is mid 90's I think, were we not sponsored by Puma at one stage or did they not sponsor have the RFL licence for RL calls used in the pro game.

1995-1998 at a guess

If people can decipher more names that will help date it.

Middle of the 2nd photo looks like Kris Radlinski, under Est 1872 is Craig Murdock with Paul Johnson to the right as you look at it, to the left could be Danny Ellison, on top photo I think its Simon Houghton ... the Andy might be Johnson or Farrell. At a guess I'd say 1997 team - was #6 Henry Paul?

Have used my teacher deciphering eyes as best I can (and some of them I actually have ... like Mr Radlinski's :wink: )

I've got a signed ball from the grand final win in 1998 and there's a few signatures that are on yours that arnt on mine. Maybe a little earlier. 96 maybe?
