MCMIRACLE!

'It was my last chance to play at Wembley' says medical marvel Mcllorum after returning FIVE WEEKS early from ruptured bicep

COMEBACK king Micky Mcllorum revealed his surgeon thought he had no chance of playing at Wembley.

And others labelled him just plain “stupid, crazy” for even trying.

But after remarkably returning from a ruptured bicep FIVE weeks early, the veteran Hull KR hooker can look at his fourth Challenge Cup winner's medal with a knowing smile this morning.

Tom Davies’ 77th-minute try, improved by ice-cool Mikey Lewis’ touchline conversion, delivered the Robins their first major silverware in 40 years.

However, there were so many moving parts to it all as the Super League leaders overcame their worst display of the season to leave Warrington heartbroken for a second year running.
