| Western Bulldogs | Kicked a bag of 7 against Hawthorn in 1997 and a few bags of 6 including one 6 bag in a final against Adelaide. | |||
| He was part of the team's success story of the 90's. He could take a pack mark in the goal square. He was a burley guy with plenty of weight to throw around. | ||||
| Unfortunately, in one match his weight throwing around got him suspended and we missed a valuable player for the finals. In his own words he said, "If you do the crime the you've got to do the time." | ||||
| Watching the match where he was suspended I think it was the opposition player's fault for marking the ball, because we were on a roll at that stage and the opposition should have got out of the way. Poor ol'd Cookie had to be the one to flatten him, If a smaller player had done the deed it probably would have only have been a 50 metres penalty. | ||||
