Aye my favourite two players of all time with the Black Pearl number one of course.
I see you are still creaming over Lockyer then Nick.

| Ricky Stuart was the one guy I wanted us to get. We were always desperate for a play making scrum half and I think he signed only to break his arm and not come over. It was very disappointing not to see in the Red V.
As for UK players it has to be Martin Offiah doesn't it? Hanley may have been the better player but in the days before defending Offiah was an excitement machine and loved to entertain, which is a severely underrated quality.

| Quote Noel Cleal="Noel Cleal"Dean Sampson: International quality wasted at Cas. Just like Kevin Ward.
Iestyn Harris: Furious when he went to Leeds, guess Scully was a good secong prize
Henry Paul: Murdered us @ Wakefield as a teenager. We should have signed him after but he had a contract to play the year after for the Auckland Warriors. As we are not a scummy club we respected that. We could have signed him instead of Bradford later in his career also.
Jamie Peacock: Unhappy at Bradford we should have got him to Saints. Has won Leeds 4 league titles against us on his own.'"
Henry Paul would be one of my choices, I was at that game at Belle Vue, they moved him from full back to stand off and he cut us to pieces, definately a class act.
Just to be different it would have been good to see Jonathon Davies in a Saints shirt.
It was always rumoured that he would sign for us but Widnes pipped us to it.
I don't rate him as a TV expert but again a class act on the field.

It was apparently the way the Saints board ostracised Alex Murphy during discussions with him that made him sign for Widnes - he didn't want anything to do with a club who valued their manager so little.

The one we heard at the time was he had pen in hand but needed a bit more time to think so went back to Wales and on the way back Paul Moriarty talked him out of it.How true this version is I don't know.
Ironically Moriarty signed for Widnes not long after too.
Remember ringing Saints newsline (that was our only way of accessing club info back in 1988!) and Stuart Pyke announcing he'd turned us down and signed for Widnes-was well gutted!

Dougie Laughton told a different story at one of the SPF panel nights.

Like I say don't know how true it was.If anyone thinks Saints rumours today are wild they were probably wilder back then.Jeremy Guscott,Garry Schofield etc.
