Your Say
roy horrigan says: wonderful defensive centre, what he lacked in pace
he made up for with tackling. of aboriginal heritage
i believe he came from the country town of Euabolong. extremely long place kicker although not always accurate,i seen him kick a goal from 65
mtrs once out at the old sports ground and won $10
from the bloke next to me on the hill. (29/08/2011)
chris saddler says: Ron Saddler is my first cousin and I remember my father Henry Saddler taking me to a footy match in Sydney to watch him. As I am the youngest in my family I was to young to appreciate what a great example he was for all of us.Sent with love Chris Saddler (23/11/2011)
