  Brilliant forward with sometimes a touch of genius. Could take a one-handed mark in a pack. Aboriginal player.

Western Bulldogs Would disappear from time to time and nobody knew where he went.  
     
  He was a great pick up from Melbourne, although looked overweight most of the time (on a James Cook diet I think), he was unstoppable at times and was one who helped us to win many games.  
     
  Consider a super fast Huddo goal-kicking sneaky player of aboriginal origin. Quick snaps and pot shots were this blokes method, and he was consistently kicking goals that are up there with the skills you see in players of this era, only when you see 'super goals' there is only an average of one per player per year. Les brought the whole bag of tricks week in week out.
