Your Say

One of the most underrated players to play the game. Saved more tries then he scored and was instrumental in the Cowboys first good years of 04-05. The way he came back onto the rep scene after being thought of as too old and washed up is nothing short of amazing as well.

No wonder you were one of the best players to come from QLD because the amount of tries that you scored is sensational.

An excellent player, very underrated but the stats tell the true brilliance of this unassuming and unique talent. To top it all off he is also a TOP BLOKE. 25/3/21.
