If its the Earl Park riot, there were claims of biting, leading to a massive brawl where even members of the crowd started fighting and it spilled onto the ground.

Who get sent off, after fulltime during a game, on the 1990 Kangaroo Tour, for swearing?

Speaking of which does anybody remember the first game of the 1998 season when Geoff Toovey and John Hopoate were both sent off for continual decent?

It was the first competition match following the horrrid superleague season.

Yeah, correct.

I had the actual games at the time but I can't remember now.


Done some research, there's two that I know was in 1963 and 1966.

Both were the 3rd tests of the series. One where he led with his knees while an Australian player was already tackled, another where he put a "coat-hanger" on Noel Kelly.

Not sure if two was the exact number but surprisingly he wasnt sent off when he famously head butted Jim Morgan in 1970.

Wouldnt be surprised if it was Geyer.
