Quote Stan Doffarf="Stan Doffarf"I'm sure I remember David Hill exiting the bench to participate in an impromptu martial arts event in a game against, inevitably, Leigh. Alex Murphy had blatantly punched Brian Butler in the kisser precipitating the brawl. Murphy walked away and sat on the ball as the rest of both squads attempted to resolve the dispute.
Murphy was probably the best player I ever saw, and definitely the most complete ar****le.'"
Not sure if you're correct with it being Murphy in that particular game, though what you describe is certainly the way Murphy worked - start a fight then disappear..
Definitely agree with your summing up! To be honest, his attitude to the game makes his appearance in the Hall of Fame an embarrassment as far as I'm concerned.
