That was a great Newtown side. Nearly won the grand final as well, but were eventually overrun by a Parramatta side that had practically the entire Australian backline. Moose was a one-eyed Many supporter, so he'd never admit that Eadie's heel might have touched the line in the disallowed try.
Phil Sigsworth will go down in history as an underated fullback. He eventually defected to Cantabury and was sensationally sent off in the 1986 grandfinal.
When I was a young man about twenty five years ago I was really drunk in a bar and saw Wok so I approached him ..I was loud and probably annoying but he was such a gentleman and we had a chat about Rugba League
Bowden should have been sin binned instead of sent off? You have got to me kiddin me! In a '79 controversy corner, Rex and Kelly were bemoaning the fact that the game was getting too dirty and that needed to be stamped out ... with send offs. lol
Yeah, he was my teacher at High School. I don't know who caught who out, but we bumped into him at Canterbury Leagues, we should have been at Maths lessons.
@eagleeric2598 didn't know Warren Ryan was a school teacher, but that makes sense somehow . Des Hasler, Roy Masters, Ricky Walford and a few others over the years.

Great work Mate, Oh the Memories of Rex and controversy Corner
Phil "What's-A-Packet-A" Sigsworth best footy nickname ever
Old tommy had a sport store in westpoint blacktown i bought my first pair of boots from him in 1977 seen a lot of him in blacktown in the early days
Little dust up at the beginning of the game is an understatement
no kidding...thats was brutal..Broadhurst had broken eye socket and broken cheek

Yet he never mentioned the try to Manly which was forward.

@@StuartRyan-dn5uphad a rather inauspicious shot at origin. I’d have the Dragons’ Brian Johnson as one of the most underrated fullbacks
You wanna hear a biased commentary. The worst of all was John Singelton. It was hilarious to listen to him call a Newtown game.
Wok was a tough old fashioned coach.
Very astute.
He was. Always coached to his strength. He was the sports master at Belmore Boys and that was how he coached them.

3.37 love rex
Sadly Warren is the only one left.
You forget that Phil Gould was a player.
And he's got his own hilarious yarn about this game: czcams.com/video/GyZGi5kLy1A/video.html (almost certainly with a lot of poetic licence taken)
He was a pretty good player as well.. don't be fooled Gus is a pretty tough hombre
is there more from this controversy corner or has it been edited down?
there's more
Interesting how they are grateful for then being allowed to have replacements, yet, today they have interchange and it's totally taken for granted!

Sin bin a failure that shouldn't be in the game 😂 love these old shows!!
They are but we complain when they aren't used.
'He was reading the script' yeah and he still is.
That sin bin is a failure that will never last
Wok looks like he’s ready for another beer!

@@tigerwarsaw99 Sports Master. He would have the Wests Under 23's at the school gym training sometimes.
4:58 forward pass from Gibbs for a try….any comments, Rex?

Unthought of. Sure it isn't a KB or Resch?
