Biography

Former St George lower grades and Souths forward, originally from Werris Creek, moved to Newcastle in 2000 following the exclusion of the Rabbitohs from the NRL. The tallest prop in the game (200cms), Parsons was up front in the Knights’ grand final win over P’matta in 2001. At the end of 2004 Parsons returned to Werris Creek and played a season in the local competition.
