Hard act to follow, coming straight after Barry John but kept his immaculate high standard going for quite a few years, for club, country and Lions. A true great.

The best FH I ever saw play. He could do things from a standing start that others could only dream of. One fringe attribute was the ability to place-kick like a top footballer - no stupid mannerisms, just style.

What a player. Someone who really stood out when i first became interested in the game.
