| Player Information |
| |
A tough as nails midfielder who was famous for his hard work off the ground. Came back to join the inaugural West Coast squad after 6 years in Victoria playing for Collingwood and Richmond. His VFL experience was a key during the early years at the club.
His legend grew after he decided to run home to Nedlands from the Perth Domestic Airport as punishment for a disappointing game in Geelong.
After retirement he spent time as the runner and the physio for West Coast. |
