Where the hell is Kerry Hemsley?



Pundits,

What’s this I see?

Team of the Century

Full-back: Clive Churchill
Wingers: Ken Irvine, Brian Bevan
Centres: Reg Gasnier, Mal Meninga
Five-eighth: Wally Lewis
Half-back: Andrew Johns
Lock: John Raper
Second row: Ron Coote, Norm Provan
Front row: Duncan Hall, Arthur Beetson
Hooker: Noel Kelly
Reserves: Dally Messenger, Bob Fulton, Graeme Langlands, Frank Burge
Coach: Jack Gibson

Not a single Balmain player among them, bar one of course; the great Arty Beetson did turn out for the Tigers in 74 games, but then went onto make his name at Easts.
Where’s the great Keefy Barnes?
Where’s Junior, Blocker, Sirro, Garry Jack, Backdoor Benny, Scotty “Go The Coon” Gale?
Where the hell is Kerry Hemsley, for gawds sake?
Team of the century… I’ll be buggered….
