Louie was my cousin. He coached in Cairns after leaving Parra and broke his forearm on the head of Mark Broadhurst playing against the touring Kiwis. The arm was operated on but was not a complete success. After this he returned to live in Windang, NSW. Great defender and used to be a butcher, with arms like an anvil. Very proud of his achievements, came from a great family.
