I would like to more ex players become school teachers when they retire, and possibly spot any potential Rugby League league players,who are not involved in the game.

I believe that was how LMS, Clubb and a few others got involved in RL. They had a teacher at their school that saw them and brought them to a Greenwich Admirals training session to get them involved.

I said I believed the Chris Hill one. The  Charnley one sounds like a story for the press. Working on building sites is the most dangerous work activity there is.

The whole point of being a pro player was to move players away from working down the pit. Working on site would almost certainly invalidate his insurances. 
Whatever he’s doing I personally don’t believe he’s a paid contracted bricklayer. I do believe he will be fairly soon.

That's a good reason to have ex players as teachers otherwise these and others would have been lost to the game.

LMS, Rob and Michael Worrincy yes. Not sure about Tony Clubb.
