Sterlo and Kenny have Hill's named after them I think.

But now that there are seats there they aren't called hills anymore, it's the Sterling/Kenny concorse or somthing, a Parra fan would have to give the exact name.

At Parramatta Stadium - the names are as follows

Western Stand = Ken Thornett Stand
Eastern Stand = Michael Cronin Stand
Northern Terrace = Peter Sterling Terrace
Southern Terrace = Brett Kenny Terrace

There's an Edgar Newham Stand at Cowra, NSW.

There's also a Raudonikis Oval at Cowra but I think they play Cricket and/or hockey there.

That would be Warilla, correct?

Yep... don't tell me you have the misfortune of knowing it... or worse lived there! :shock: lol
Thankfully I'm close but not in the same suburb... ;-)

Outside the Steelers club is a walk of fame... with many famous names that have come from the Wollongong comp or South Coast group 7.
Names such as:
- Fulton
- Roach
- Langlands
- Cronin
- Wishart
- McGregor
- Dorahy
- and many many more talented players that have represented the country.

Quigs, there's an impressive walk of legends with large pictures behind Kogarah Jubilee. There are some big names there and they thinking of extending it.
If you want the list, I can look it up for you.
Cheers.

Yup, Barrack Heights. And I do have the misfortune of living there, Mt Druitt by the Sea.
Luckily they did Provan, Messenger, Gasnier and missed Raper. Imagine the price of real estate on Raper Rd.
At least most of the inhabitants would have to be saints fans.

Gidday Jam,

Please excuse my ignorance here. Was Alf an old West player. or was he an official out that way. I can't find him in my list of old Roo players.

I am not trying to be a smart arse here, I'd just like to know a bit more about Alfs past. Can you help me here.

Cheers
Quigs

Yep, Barrack Point. Just look it up on a Wollongong, Shellharbour, Kiama Street directory on the web. You'll find em all there.

By the way, Barrack Point is just north of Shellharbour, Bass Point is south (but no houses there). And notice Shellharbour, one word... and locals don't pronounce the 'h'. "ShellARba".
