slam dunk 1,317 Report post Posted May 20, 2014 Thats certainly sad news condolences to anyone one close particularly those who played rugby with him. A keen racing man and the key to Taranaki's two Ranfurley Shield tenures. People would say that the Taranaki teams relied on his drop kicking but I don't think the whole team was given the deserved accolades for some of the gutsiest defences in the shields history. The team played some fantastic rugby and when finally Auckland won the shield the game was an absolute thriller. A number of the other players also got involved in racing.
