Rugby Union Career
After captaining the Australian Schoolboys Rugby Union side on their 1986 tour of New Zealand, he made his Test debut for the Wallabies against Scotland in 1988. He earned five international rugby union Test caps between 1988 and 1989 as a flanker. He became prominent with some fearsome displays of running against the touring British Lions in 1989 and he is remembered for a magnificent try scored in that series, running through tacklers at will.

Famous quotes containing the words union and/or career:
“These semi-traitors [Union generals who were not hostile to slavery] must be watched.—Let us be careful who become army leaders in the reorganized army at the end of this Rebellion. The man who thinks that the perpetuity of slavery is essential to the existence of the Union, is unfit to be trusted. The deadliest enemy the Union has is slavery—in fact, its only enemy.”
—Rutherford Birchard Hayes (1822–1893)
“Whether lawyer, politician or executive, the American who knows what’s good for his career seeks an institutional rather than an individual identity. He becomes the man from NBC or IBM. The institutional imprint furnishes him with pension, meaning, proofs of existence. A man without a company name is a man without a country.”
—Lewis H. Lapham (b. 1935)
