Vintage St Helens Shirt 1966 Rugby League

This great Vintage St Helens Shirt 1966 Rugby League is inspired by legends. The team of '96 had featured home-grown talents. Such as Alex Murphy, Peter Harvey, Tommy Bishop, Ray French, and more � alongside a host of international talent. On the wings were two flying Springboks in Tom�van Vollenhoven and Len Killeen. And there is a mixture because of multiple classic Welsh players like John Warlow, John Mantle, and, although missing for Wembley, Kel Coslett. To add the finishing touches, Albert Halsall and Bill Sayer � a�pair of Wiganers in the front row � along with tough as teak Londoner Cliff Watson are to name a few.�Take a look at our video. \n \nCaptain of the team was Alex Murphy who had already won a Challenge Cup with Saints back in 1961 when they defeated Wigan by 12-6. \n \nSt Helens�winger�Len Killeen won The Lance Todd Trophy.
