He was hard but I wouldn't have called him a thug... can't remember him getting his marching orders on many occasions.

Harsh assessment that... his discipline can't have been any worse than some of the players we've got at the minute.

I remember Kelvin '3rd man in cheapshot' Skerrett soiling himself against TC at CP in a midweek game around 88-89. Think we lost 48-0 or something.
