Defenders would think they had him lined up and then he’d be through with the would be tackler having no clue as to how it happened. Barry John used to glide through gaps and I used to have no clue how he did it at the time, so there’s no way I can explain what happened now!

These were the true legends from the Men of Harlech era.

RIP Mr John.
