EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, we are transported back to the intense Rugby League clash between Wigan and Bradford Northern at Central Park. The year is 1952, a time when rugby was played with raw passion and grit. The image captures a defining moment in the game as Cunliffe, wearing the number 3 jersey for Wigan, fearlessly lowers his head and charges forward to tackle Trevor Foster of Bradford Northern. The muddy field bears witness to the fierce battle unfolding before our eyes. With determination etched on his face, Cunliffe demonstrates unwavering commitment as he throws himself into the challenge. His sheer strength is evident as he grapples with Foster's resistance. Amidst this enthralling action, Mather of Wigan stands behind them, observing intently. Perhaps he awaits an opportunity to lend support or strategize for their team's next move. This photograph encapsulates not only a pivotal moment in sports history but also represents the spirit of rugby league during that era - tough, unyielding, and marked by camaraderie among teammates. Spencer-Kemsley has expertly captured this timeless scene from Memory Lane Prints. As we gaze upon it today, we can't help but be reminded of the enduring legacy left by these players who paved the way for modern-day rugby enthusiasts worldwide.
