I watched one KZbin video on these matches, now I can't get rid of the bloody things.

I first watched Wally play half back for Fortitude Valley when he was 15 playing in the U16 Super A division in Brisbane against my brother Chris playing half back for South Brisbane. He focused on doing the little things correctly. His self discipline was admirable.

You see how disappointed Wally Lewis was when holding the trophy. He was booed by his own crowd in his first year as Australian captain. A really, really sh*thouse effort by those cretins who did so. Lewis said that at one stage during the series an adult gathered some kids and they chanted "Wally's a wanker" at him at the end of the tunnel. State of Origin is one thing. But representing & captaining your country shouldn't facilitate that crap.

It said a lot about Lewis as a player that despite he and Ray Price not really getting along all that well off the field (indeed, they had a very public battle for the Aussie captaincy in 1984. Wally won out because he was likely to be in the side, and was, for years to come where as Price let it be known he was retiring from rep footy). But Wally was the one to chair Ray Price off the field at the end.

Ray Price was a dual code international for Australia

Jimmy Jack's try for Australia in the 2nd half created history. It was the first time in all Ashes contests between the two since 1908 that a fullback from either side would score a try. Joe Lydon would repeat it from the British PoV at Old Trafford during the 1986 Kangaroo tour. Ironically he outpaced Jack to score. Jack himself scored 3 tries from fullback in that 1986 Ashes series. Since then the Ashes fullbacks to score have been - Phil Ford (GB, 3rd test 1988), Graham Steadman (GB, 2nd test 1992), Jonathan Davies (GB, 1st test 1994), Brett Mullins (Aus, 2nd test 1994 x 2), Darren Lockyer, (Aus, 2nd and 3rd tests 2001 plus 1st and 2nd tests 2003). That does not count Tri-Nations or World Cups unless the game doubled as a WC game from 1985 to 1992.

Great days of footy. Hardly care for it now, it's not the same. I remember being on the Hill as the SCG I think at one of the SOO games yelling 'Wally's a Wanker'. Well he was!! But, he was a bloody awesome player as well.
