HeritageCast #19 | John Dorahy

⚡️ Powered by 𝐁𝐮𝐝𝐠𝐞𝐭 𝐓𝐲𝐫𝐞𝐬 𝐀𝐮𝐭𝐨𝐜𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐫𝐞 and 𝟑𝟔𝟎 𝐂𝐡𝐚𝐫𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐞𝐝 𝐀𝐜𝐜𝐨𝐮𝐧𝐭𝐚𝐧𝐭𝐬. John Dorahy is quite simple Rover’s rugby league royalty. Nicknamed Joe Cool because of his ice cold playing style John was a firm fans favourite and is fondly remembered for his grace and style both on and off the pitch.  John signed for the Robin back in 1983 after being spotted by the late great Colin Hutton and amassed 94 appearances during his three seasons with the club.   In this 𝐇𝐞𝐫𝐢𝐭𝐚𝐠𝐞Cast we discuss how his move to Rovers came about, why he never signed a contract whilst playing for Rovers and how he dealt with missing THAT conversation during the 1986 Challenge Cup Final against Castleford.   John also talks about his incredible double winning debut season and his surprise at being awarded the Harry Sunderland trophy.   This is a fantastic opportunity for supporters both young and old to hear from a man who holds his time at the club in the highest regard.    𝓤𝓹 𝓽𝓱𝓮 𝓡𝓸𝓫𝓲𝓷𝓼!
