[QUOTE="riders of the storm, post: 85111"] I wouldn't say he's as much of a legend as the likes of Lockyer, Sterling or Lewis, but he is certainly a worthy of being a League legend. He won a grand final with the Storm in 1999 and represented New Zealand several times at international level. Many believed that he should have gotten the Clive Churchill medal in the grand final as well. As a New Zealand league player he is a legend. Not only as a player is he a legend, but as a person as well. He lost his wife and had his leg amputated in a motorcycle accident so he could raise his children (I know this isn't relevant information for the league hall of fame, but it reflects who the man is). As Dumbo earlier said, for Kiwi's he is a legend. [/QUOTE]
