Steve Tyrer is someone in the words of Harlequins stalwart Tony Rea "who the whole rugby league community have known about for some time."
Tyrer made a big impact on the first team squad in 2007, making a try scoring home debut against Bradford, his strong running and goal kicking ability cemented his place as one of the games brightest prospects. Having played his first full season as number 24, Stephen was given the number 22 jersey for the 2008 Super League season.
He found his opportunities limited however in a strong Saints squad.
He spent the final third of the season on loan at Widnes where he wore the number 3 jersey and scored over 100 points, including two second half tries and several conversions in his debut against Salford. After Widnes missed out on a place in the 2009 Super League competition, Tyrer parted with the club to pursue his top flight ambitions with Crusaders.
This was followed by another season on loan at Salford. He was one of a few Widnes players to join Halifax after not winning a Super League contract at Widnes.
