With the recent hall of faming for the raging bull I thought it would only be fitting to reminisce about one of my favourite players ever for the Broncos. I watched the video on the broncos site and I just loved his intensity and pure focus. That guy was not to mess with when he was full of rage. Anyone else got any good videos on him? What were your most favourite memories? Obviously the shirt sling over the sideline in SOG was a big one.

Re: Gordon CONEHEAD
I remember when he pwned Ben Ross. Ross didn't even do a lot wrong as far as I remember.
When you pissed him off he certainly let you know about it. My favourite memory was when he did the 'lasso' tackle on Hodgeson in origin 3 2002. That was probably the angriest I have seen him as well.

Re: Gordon CONEHEAD
He's one of the nicest guys you could meet, he always has plenty of time for the fans, and I never saw him refuse an autograph. He played hard and always lead from the front, and I thought he could motivate others around him just by the way he played the game. I remember the try against Penrith at ANZ, he went off as soon as he scored, and never returned to the field because of concussion. He does ham it up a bit on Fox, but he always says it how it is, rather than sugar coating it for the media. He autobiography is an interesting read.

Re: Gordon CONEHEAD
Ive always wondered, why did he take so long to get onto the field in his last ever match, in the finals against the Cowboys? Did he need to go to the bathroom or something?

Re: Gordon CONEHEAD
After his Court appearance the other day, he mentioned something about the area where his new house will be as a great area for his kids to grow up. I got the idea from this that he will live up here once the house is built. Is a reconciliation with the Broncs on the cards?

Re: Gordon CONEHEAD
Did he have a problem with the Broncos as a club or just Wayne Bennett?
I can't remember what his beef was with Bennett, someone remind me.

I hope Gordy comes back as Forward coach one day soon.
