Biggest Thrill:
Very fortunate to have plenty of them, but probably winning my very first Auckland A-Grade Championship in 1987 against the master, Ron Milicich by just 17 points after four hours of battle to get my name on what I still believe is New Zealand’s greatest trophy – the very handsome Auckland A-Grade shield – I just so much wanted that shield!
