Re: What ever happened to.......?

He was. I remember listening to the news report on the school bus.....god that seems a long time ago :eek:

It was a long time ago. It is 27 years since he played at the Cats.

His career at Geelong ended in 1984.

Showing your age there Cataholic.

Yeah, I am, and to make it worse I feel every bit of it :)

I remember it so well because I'd never heard of such fan-fare about a players arrival at the cattery, no doubt due to the fact that I was so young at the time!! :D
 
Lol, I just realised the name Nigel Kol sounded familiar.
Before my time of following the footy but he works for the same company I do. His now a sales consultant selling houses in Warrnambool/Ballarat.

(I don't sell houses, I work in head office)
 
Re: What ever happened to.......?

If I remember correctly, he was met by the media after he was flown into K'Park in a helicopter.

I grew up next to KP as a young lad and remember when Peak landed in the helicopter. I was there with a mate (I must have been six or seven) and wanted to see him because I'd heard he was aboriginal. I'd never seen an aboriginal before and when he landed my friend said, "how come he's in a helicopter?" I did the know-it-all shrug and said, "that's how they travel". It still makes me laugh.
