Biography

Goal-kicking Newcastle winger was a shock inclusion in Queensland's State of Origin team in two matches in 1992. Brunker returned to rep duty for one more match the following year but his move to the G’Coast in 1994 did not bring a repeat of that success. Brunker later played for Wakefield in England in 1999.
