Ahhh memories. I remember going to Henson Park one Sunday with my old man to watch Parra play the Roosters. There were about 1000 people at the game and I remember the eels warming up on the hill behind the score board. I remember seeing Mark Clinton and thinking 'How big is he'.

I remember Fatty was in reggies for the roosters and I'm pretty sure we flogged them that day.

Great great memories. I often think about that day.

ha ha, i know, between him and Greg Drake the commentators these days would definitely call them massive human beings.....ha ha

both about as mobile as a Nuclear Power Station though.....

right, so Nifty dropped the ball in his whole career? it's a bit of an insult considering he was a local junior who played for Australia..

Unfortunately you get remembered for that one thing in your life. Your point is very valid but doesn't change the fact that the one thing Glover will be remembered for is that drop. Not that it should be held against him - the bad parts are just as important as the good parts of folklore.

119 games with 55 tries and 2 tests for Australia in 1978..

that's what I remember him for.
