Biography

Newcastle halfback represented NSW in one game in 1908 before gaining selection for Australia in the international matches against the NZ Maori team in 1909. Patfield, who was granted belated Australian rep status by the ARL in 2004, played an important role in the formation of the Newcastle ‘Rebels’ club in 1908. It was he who travelled to Sydney to represent the newly-formed club and to collect a grant from the NSWRL to cover expenses for the Rebels team.

    Ernest Montague (Monty) PATFIELD was my grandfather. I have written up his history at: http://www.strong-family.org/patfield/chapter_2.html However, I did not know anything about his League career. Alan Whiticker...can you please contact me with more information and also photos so that I can tell you if you have the right man?
    Thanks, Philip Strong
