NRL opponents Reagan Campbell-Gillard and Paul Vaughan were involved in the dramatic rescue of a mother and son who got into trouble in surf over the weekend.
In a message posted to the Shellharbour Surf Lifesaving Club’s Facebook page, Peter Gavin thanked the one-time NSW Blues Origin teammates “for assisting our patrol to rescue a mother and son who got into trouble in the rip to the north of the flags”.
The two rugby league props were first to reach the mother and son and then they were assisted by members of the lifesaving club.
St George Illawarra confirmed to foxsports.com.au the incident happened but Vaughan chose not to speak about it publicly.
The pair are mates off the field but adversaries on it, with Vaughan leading the Dragons pack and Campbell-Gillard last year becoming one of Parramatta’s best and most important players.
The Eels and Dragons squared off in a trial on Thursday but neither Vaughan or Campbell-Gillard featured on the field.
NRL will probably stand him down for 12 months for this.....
