Great try that was set up by prop Jack Munn for winger Ron Roberts in the 1949 final. Jack Munn shows great speed, strength and versatility and ball skills with a lovely final pass, as show on, Thats Rugby League, a Graham Mcneice production of 100 years of Rugby League. Jack Munn was a big match performer who could help win games, when the team needed help when the chips were down. A great team player with great strength, pride and spirit in the mid to late 1940s.
