Gordie's Tales

About this book

Who are the biggest "lady killers" in Rugby League past and present? What is Wayne Bennett really like? Which international footballer was beaten up by teenage kids in Spain? What are the best 10 on-field sledges of all time? In Gordie's Tales, The Footy Show star and Queensland and Australian league legend Gorden Tallis tells these hilarious true stories and many more. Gorden takes you inside State of Origin teams, on Kangaroo tours, and along for the ride on hilarious end of season trips. Gordie gives his "rant" on what is right and wrong with the game, and even tells us what he would do if he were to run the NRL for one day! Gordie's Tales is a very funny and rare insight into the real world behind modern day rugby league, written by someone who embodies the humor and the grit of the toughest game of all.
