Idwal Fisher signed for Warrington on his 27th birthday, 3rd February 1962, having played rugby union for Llanelli and Swansea. Initially he lodged with coach Ernie Ashcroft, before he was able to move his family up to Warrington. After 47 appearances and five tries for Wire, he transferred to the new Bradford Northern club, when they reformed in 1964 and played in their Yorkshire Cup winning team of 1964. He finished his career with a few games for Bramley in 1969. Idwal, the older brother of Tony Fisher was a typical Welsh rugby forward, put himself about on the pitch and made many friends of it. He was a successful businessman who spent 10 years in Arizona. Golf was his passion after he finished playing rugby though a serious accident on the golf course five years ago curtailed his playing time. He died on 5 January 2012 at the age of 76 in Lockerbie, Scotland.
