Yeah he was an absolute favourite of mine. His tenacity and utter reckless ability to tackle and not give a hoot for himself.
I may have shared this previously, but I had dealings with his mother about 20 years ago. Met at their place in Earlwood, I only knew it was her as there was a huge picture of the Speech up on the wall in the lounge room.
When I saw it and looked down to see the surname, my shocked surprise made her day. Nice old lady, who has probally passed now.
Aside from her talking proudly about his playing career, she couldn’t help but have complete venom for Terry Lamb - the incident probally ruined him really.
Her thoughts is probally the reason I can’t stand him.
Hope the man is alright
