he ran the field like a run down truck. wonder what he does these days:-)

A huge favourite at the Raiders during their Sieffert Oval era as they built towards their first premiership. No need for front rowers to cart the ball up from the kick-off as Phil sprinted fearlessly into the defence every time. His consistent performance at 100% effort is a role model for players of the modern era.

The fastest man in Newcastle was a genius for Manly and Canberra in the greatest era of the game. Fit as superman. Quick. Fearless. A passionate team man. Featured in the 1989 and 1990 grand final wins. Top bloke too. His oversized shoulder pads are an icon of the game.

Aa Raiders fan since 82 a shared a desk with his neice Cheree in high school and used to love chatting with her about his weekend game during English class come mid morning on Monday. No fear at running at the big guys off the kick returns much like the back three do in the modern game. Well before his time.
