Your Say

Harleigh Hanrahan was my father.
I understand he also played several games for NSW and also represented the Australian Universities Rugby League team against a New Zealand Universities Rugby League side in, I think, 1928 or 1929.
I still have one of his NSW jerseys. Later, after WW II he became a soldier settler on a property outside of the Adelong.
These details are not recorded on this site.
In the late 50's he coached the Adelong Group 13 RL side and, on a couple of occasions, took the field when the side was short because of injury. Not bad for a bloke who was almost 50.

John can you please contact me? I have found a newspaper article saying that your father was from Robertson - I am doing some research on Robertson Rugby League history, did he ever play for Robertson too?
