    “Played first grade rugby league for Lithgow Workmens, Portland, Cootamundra, Nambucca Heads, Nyngan, Brisbane Brothers, and the Kone Tigers in Port Moresby.”

    Known affectionately as ‘TV Ted’ after his starring performance in the first Amco Cup, a tournament he won with Western Division.

    Winner of the ‘Amco Eagle Trophy’, presented to the ‘Amco Cup Personality of 1974’

    As a snotty nosed kid in early 1960s Lithgow Ted was king of the kids. My first visit to a Group 10 match was at the old 'rec" in Lithgow. The very first action I saw was Ted take the ball near his own tryline and score a try by way of fend,dummy,chip/regather and sprint. He went over the line with opposition players hanging on to him. Really, you had to see it to to believe it. Off the field I saw him as a generous,charismatic good guy. On the Rugby League fields he was a natural talent and winner who did the unusual and unexpected. How he never played for Sydney club's and beyond I do not know? I vote for Ted "yesterday, today and tomorrow" RIP and remembered fondly.
