"I've met Ray Price who was running a take away order for the factory he was working at. This was at my old man's Fish 'n chip Shop in Belfield on Burwood Rd in 1985 when I was 11. Ran and fetched my footy from the back. We exchanged passes infront…"

"I would say he's a similar prospect to Sam. Let's not forget that Sam was a blue chip prospect himself, x2 Aus schoolboy and NSW u19 rep. And Sam has exceeded my projections. He is playing way better in FG than he did in the step up to Flegg/cup. …"
"Yeah that 3rd Hooker situation is a worry, particularly with Coinakis playing only Flegg to this point. If Da Silva goes down, i think we are ok since Smith can play 80. Yeah he's knocked around at the moment but has shown he can handle 80mins. Da…"

"Yeah they absolutely knocked Saints. They will keep going for him to get out. Flanno seems to have done what he did to Lawrie, calling him rubbish for a response and LPT has said screw this."

This man "THE CROW" is my all time fav EEL. When I played rep league as a youngster I tried to mould my gam and goal kicking around him
Very classy player and man 👏🏻👏🏻👊😎
Theres the carlo kiss of death right there.
Mick, please be safe in the next few days/weeks.
😆😆😆 far out lol
Bit overrated though, wouldnt want him kicking a goal to save your life.
Wouldnt want him coaching to save your life either
i was just throwing out a few crumbs HKF, looking for a nibble
Nice one Garry, good to see you got out ok, rumoured to be a few bodies buried under the Gerringong.
Your opionion mate. To be honest It was mentioned by the rep coach back in 84 when I played school rep footy that I played a bit similar to the crow. My all time fav and always will be
There is a reason he is the first "Champion" of Parramatta. Played in all of our Grand Final wins. One of the all time greats and worthy of Immortal status. I laugh at anyone who knocks him as a goal kicker. He held the all time ARL/NRL point scoring record for years kicking leather balls from sand mounds. More importantly, a champion human being. Great photo Garry.
Also needs to be remembered he didn't start playing NSWRL until he was 26 so his total points scored could have been higher if he started earlier.
