  • He was a geat bloke who always had good joke or story to tell. He stood up for what he believed and always heard plenty of good stories about him helping others.

    Younger fans mightn't know that he took on the league in court ending the draft for players when he won the right to play for Western Suburbs where he wanted to play instead of being forced to play for the roosters who drafted him.  Unfortunately the draft rules he beat and were discontinued led to West having to merge with tigers and team he didn't want to join being roosters became a powerhouse under the free trade he created

"Personally I'd like to see TDS getting some proper game time and build his confidence up a bit. A few games in NSW cup playing 60-70 mins would do him wonders. Having papali on the bench gives us cover for Riley to have a short stint. "
