    Lightning fast outside back that also played lock/second row and five eighth when needed. Had a lengthy career in first grade only limited by niggling injuries. Was unlucky to not play representative football, was earmarked for a NSW SOO wing position in 2000 but succumbed to injury in the weeks leading to selection. Captained the panthers during his final year at the club. Is held in very high regard in the NRL community and is currently the head of Welfare at Panthers and current NSWRL Coach at St.Marys.

    Lol at the commenter that said he "also played lock/second row and five eighth when needed". Looked at the list of all games played and he literally never played in any of those positions.
