RIP Joe Egan

Joseph Charnock11 Nov 2012 - 14:27

Death of Grt. Britain Wigan and St. Pat's ARLFC LEGEND.

It is with much sadness that I have to inform our club members of the death of Gt. Britain, Wigan and St. Pat's Legend Joe Egan . The hooker/prop represented his Country many times and was feared by the Aussies as a player and became a LEGEND of his hometown club Wigan. Joe for all his success never forgot his roots and although Ill he was still seen at his beloved St. Pat's most recently the Marines game and also the Mike Gregory game. He was significant in the opening of our present day Club and even though the Club has produced many Stars Joe was always classed as the best of them all. May I on behalf of all at St. Pat's pass on our Sincere Condolences to Joe's family at this very sad time. RIP JOE EGAN LEGENDof Rugby League but a true gent. Joe was aged 92 years. Details of his service will be added once known.
