💪 ‘Big Al’ has established himself as one of the biggest and best props in Super League since joining Saints in 2013…
Signed initially on a three-year contract he made his debut at home against Hull FC and went on to make 26 appearances for the club.
Considering in consecutive seasons he played for GB Students, Dewsbury Celtic and Batley, his transition to Super League season was remarkable.
An uncut diamond, his go forward had people talking about early international honours and he continued his progression in 2014. In 2015 he was sensational, making more than 4000 metres – and he signed a new deal with the club.
He was stellar in 2016 and that continued in 2017 with England international honours.
Alex signed a new four-year contract in 2018 but sadly he suffered a neck fracture at Warrington, just five games in, and missed the full season.
2019 saw Alex fight back from his horrific injury and was a stand-out performer, leading from the front as Saints went all the way to lifting that famous Super League trophy at Old Trafford. He was also rewarded by representing Great Britain on their first tour since 2013.
2020 was arguably Alex’s best in a Saints shirt. He powered his way into the Super League Dream team after an impressive 10 tries in 20 appearances and was often the key to our success in 2020. Big Al was named Members Player of the Year.
A year later Big Al was again named in the Dream Team and for the second successive season was named Members Player of the Year. He won his fourth Super League Grand Final’s and a first Challenge Cup in a Saints shirt!
Alex was awarded with a Testimonial Season with the Saints in 2022, the year in which a fourth straight Super League title in a row was secured!
In 2023 ‘Big Al’ completing the Club trophy list by earning a World Club Challenge down under in Australia.
A firm fan favourite, when Walmsley has the ball in hand and is running as the opposition line, he is one of the most feared props in the world of rugby league.
