    Amazing footballer during his playing years in Queensland and a great next door neighbour to us as well - sadly he passed away earlier this week - sympathy to his family

    Harry also played for Burren Junction Rugby Union club in 1968
    And 1969. He was the main danger in a memorable grand final against Coonamble won by Coonamble in 1968
