Another true gentleman and an honour to have him on board. Welcome Max.
Another of the '74 Socceroos has nominated his GrassRoots club. This time its Socceroo #224 whom I tore away from a waterproofing job (or saved depending on how you look at it), to have him nominate the junior arm of one of the country's oldest clubs, Balgownie from the coal rich Illawarra region just to the south of Sydney. Max played with them from a little tacker until he was prized away by Sth. Coast Utd to play as a teenager.
