Has he started a game in the centres in first grade? I remember he played just about half the season as starting fullback in 2002, but the only time I can recall him starting as centre was in the PM's XIII (and I'm not too sure about that either; might have been on the wing). Was he much good in the centres in juniors roopy?
I'm pretty sure his first game in firstgrade was at centre (worst debut ever).
In the juniors he was an individualist in every position he played in. He was a cocky guy who always thought he could do something, and he was right mostly.
When he was playing Flegg we were on top of the table and he was scoring at better than a try a game - but when he moved up to PL they dropped to 5th or so.
When he went up to PL mid-season they were way down the bottom of the table, but he also scored near a try a game to drag them up to 4th or 5th at the end of the season, and they came within inches of stealing the title in the semis.
Basically, he was a hot dog who was near unstoppable from 10 out and could make a break anywhere on the field. He called for the ball all game - which led to James Wynne cutting him out nearly every play - but he did something brilliant almost every time he got it.
He didn't have anything in his game in the way of playmaking skills - no kicking game - rarely passed the ball unless he had made a break - never looked to set up anyone but himself.
Won't feel too proud if we've helped play you lot back into form though
