Just remembered, Anthony Singleton.. Came from Manly to play for Widnes at first.

Anthony came to Barrow first then went to Widnes, great player, came as a fullback but played a lot of the season at 13

Singer played just the one season at Barrow but made a huge impact and scored a really memorable try at Whitehaven, where he beat man after man, late in the season. 

That try is probably the best individual try scored by a Barrow player iv seen in nearly 40 years, Khamal Ganleys 100m effort is a close 2nd

Lets start with the ones I can't leave out

1) Steve Tickle - maybe the finest full back Barow's ever had

3) Ian Ball - best attacking centre I've seen and great kicker

5) Chris Camilleri - don't know why it all went wrong but GB Internaional - in the Frank Castle league

7) David Cairns - great #### half - just ask Andy Gregory after he was outplayed in Lancs Cup Final

10) Malcolm Flynn - Hardest tackler I've seen

11) Eddie - Legend, haven't space to say how good he was

13) Derek Hadley - probably best loose forward Barrow has ever had.

5) Chris Camilleri

6) Mel Mason

7) David Cairns

9) Andy Ellis

10) Malcolm Flynn

11) Eddie Szymala

12) Ned Catic

Not sure about some Australian legends like Rod Reddy, Kevin Hastings - two of the best all time players but ready for retirement when they came to Barrow.

I've seen Tom Brophy, Bill Burgess, Frank Foster and Keith Jarrett play but I was only 8 at the time and my main memory is the pie my Dad  bought me to keep me quiet
