Nope. There was one b4 him. Played one test only vs NZ.

Bob O'Reilly was the first local junior from Parramatta to play for Australia.

Ian Johnston was the first player to represent from Parramatta but he wasn't a local junior, was actually from Newcastle, and played one game against New Zealand.

Vic Hey was a local junior who played for Parramatta and Australia but had been graded at Wests.

Well the Bear played First Grade for Penriff before he came across to Parra. So I guess if he played his junior footy as a local junior, then your possibly right.

Keith Campbell was the first player to come through the Parra ranks and play a test.

But Bob O'Reilly's match in 1970 was a World Cup match. So Keith Campbell the first player to play a Test match. ;-)
