When I was about 14 years old, I was convinced I would marry Graham Eadie! He was my most favourite rugby league player and I brought rugby league week religiously hoping there would be an article or photo of him in it. I grew up in country NSW and my sister took me to Brookvale oval once to watch him play. I had plans of asking for his autograph and having my photo taken with him but as I saw him walking off the field at the end of the game, I just completely froze. As a teenager I was besotted with him, my voice was gone, and then he was gone, and so was my chance to meet him. That was some 35 years ago. I liked the way he carried himself, I liked how he always played fairly and professionally and with so much integrity, he was a classy player. What a shame I never got to meet him that day, but at least seeing him in real life was so much better than reading articles about him.

I arrived in Australia in 1976. I grew up in the Canterbury area. Naturally I followed the Canterbury Bankstown bulldogs. Well until I watched a Manly game sometime in 1980. from that point on Graham became my favorite player. And yes I have followed Manly ever since.

I would love to say thank you Graham for your most generous donation of your number 1 1977 jersey for my fundraiser on the 30th October 2016 .
it was so selfless of you .
