His trait was taking both Centre and wing to the touch line then the killer pass out the backdoor to the winger on the inside. Wasn’t fast at all.

Bloody Hell, are we talking about a different John Henderson ?

I saw him score one of the greatest ever Leigh tries in a defeat to Widnes (Think in 84) and he cut straight through the Widnes team and left Joe Lydon for dead.

He wasnt a great defender though

It was a toss up between him and Warren Stevens. Warren just got in because he is the only person I have ever met that has an IQ that keeps falling.

Well my memories of John Henderson are not the same as yours, was never a wingers centre, was a greedy try scoring centre who defo had a real turn of pace.

I remember Barry Ledger catching him and stopping what looked certain to be a match playing try when we played Saints in the CC semi at Central Park.

Had Henderson scored I think we were Wembley bound
Henderson only had to look to his left and fend Ledger off and he would have scored!

We were stood behind the posts towards which Henderson was running. If he'd had tripped up he would have scored!!!!
