I was at a junior State Championship dinner in Queensland where ex-Bronco and Bulldog David Stagg was the guest speaker.
Stagg, a noted defensive specialist who retired at the end of the 2015 season, was for a time the record-holder for most tackles in an NRL game with 64.
I asked him which player in his career was the hardest to tackle.
He said “Anthony Minichiello”
Funny, there was heaps of raised eyebrows around the room as I expect people thought he would name some monster forward like Jason Taumalolo or someone...
More kudos for one of our finest ambassadors...
