He played eighteen Tests for Australia between 1982 and 1988 and thirteen State of Origin matches for New South Wales. He won the Clive Churchill Medal in 1986 and the Dally M Player of the Year award in 1986 and 1987. His time with the English club Hull F.C. also earned him membership of their hall of fame.
