I was only watching footage of the interview he has done for the Hull KR legends DVD last week. He was filmed whilst with Colin Hutton at the George Hotel. Sad news he was a true Rugby League Legend.

Very sad news. He will be celebrated for being Mr State of Origin, an Australian legend, but he left a massive impression way back in the 60s during his short time at Rovers. I was a ball boy at the time and I was awe struck by him.

On the pitch is were it counts and by that theory were no bigger than Sheffield! tarquin fuego wrote: I wrote this 2 mins before the game finished , you know why Sheldon Maylord ? because I know about RL !

We were a pub team I coached for a long time and we won 95% of games because winning is a mental state driven by a desire to CRUSH an opposition. Did FC look as though they wanted to Crush Wigan and strangle them until they screamed ? NO RL is a tough tough game and Maylord She-dong you have no clue In fact don't ever ever reply to any of my posts again
