Bernard John Dwyer (born 20 April 1967) is a former professional rugby league footballer who played in the 1980s and 1990s. He played in the Super League and featured as a second-row. He played for the St Helens and the Bradford Bulls during a successful rugby league career - he enjoyed the distinction of winning every club honour in the English game.
Dwyer main strengths were viewed as his professional conduct and work rate. His commitment was regarded by observers as exemplary, and this was reflected in his testimonial year at St. Helens where 'the perpetual motion man' was recognised for his work rate. He retired from the sport in 2000.[5]
In 1995, Dwyer was part of the package that brought Paul Newlove to St. Helens from Bradford Bulls. The deal was a good example of an agreement which suited both parties. Bradford Bulls acquired three solid St. Helens players as well as a quarter of a million pounds. This allowed them to build towards the success they would later enjoy. St. Helens in return acquired the world class centre that was to facilitate their drive to return the glory days back to the club.
