I believe that Harry Jepson and co. went to Australia to recruit and had Meninga lined up along with Grothe (and possibly Wayne Pearce if really wild rumours were to be believed). I heard that Ray French was out there also and had a chat with Mal and convinced him to sign for Stains instead, even though he wasnt't working for Stains at the time.
Meninga was truly awesome that year. |

Peter Sterling had a two year contract signed with us in the late eighties but injuries prevented him fulfilling it. What a pleasure it would have been to see Sterlo in blue and amber!

Won St Helens the Lancashire Cup and Premiership almost single handedly.
The Premiership final was at Elland Rd on the same day and same time that Valley Parade burnt down. Mal Meninga put a shoulder into George Fairburn that afternoon and Fairburn just laid there crumpled in agony. It was also Stan 'Max' Wall's last ever game in charge of St Helens, I mean Rugby League as a first class referee.
They just don't have days like that anymore. |

I've probably still got them on VHS somewhere but just like the rest of my tapes/discs they'll spend their remaining days gathering dust scattered around the house. |

Roberts got me thinking. I wonder if the 'barmies' would be so keen to sing certain songs if he'd played?

I heard the same story. One of those urban legends. |
