A genuine British RL legend was lost this week. He was even revered and feared in Australia.

A sad day for our game as he was a outstanding Loose Forward, for Oldham, Wakefield Trinity and Great Britain

RIP 'Rocky'

A legend of a man. Won the Challenge cup with Wakefield.Sad loss.

Missed this CP. Seen him play a few times - well named "Rocky".
He played in the great Wakefield team with other greats.
Sad loss.

Sad loss.

Also in a even greater Oldham team who never won a trophy.

Won everything except the RL cup whilst in the great Oldham pack.

He was one of the three best ever loose forwards all playing in that era along with Whiteley and Karalius. Great player.
