Met Gil in Mick Cronin's pub in Gerringong many years ago. Lovely bloke. Easy to talk to. Nearly fell off my stool when he told me who he was.

Gil MacDougal definitely played for Warrington the early to mid sixties, was a strong rampaging centre, who featured in a famous photo scattering Castleford players in his wake in a cup tie at Wilderspool.
