Rob was amazing He's my inspiration

HE was once on Manchester City's books and is probably Super League's smallest player - but Leon Hayes is certainly packing a punch.

He's loving life directing hometown Warrington around the park - having taken inspiration from fellow diminutive scrum-half Rob Burrow.

Hayes, who stands at just five foot four inches, has begun to establish himself after being given an extended run by new Wolves boss Sam Burgess.

Still only 20 years old, he's started the last eight games - his longest stint yet ahead of today's visit from Challenge Cup holders Leigh.

And Hayes, who featured in Sunday's epic 31-8 Challenge Cup quarter-final win at derby rivals St Helens, has helped fire high-flying Warrington's charge on both fronts.

Leeds legend Burrow (below), of course, tore Super League sides to shreds at just five foot five inches.
