Ron Historyo
The sensational Mark Rocco.
Turned pro 1970 and I show a trip to Perth with his dad in April , and in June he even goes in with his dad in Stafford. How many people in the audience would have known the connection.
Almost a risky strategy.
I make it 1976 when he became Rollerball and a sad ending in 1991 with that Heart defect.
How good he was , has all been said.
Anglo Italian
Amazing to see Referee Bryan as early as 1970.
Hussey and Rocco toured far and wide together 1970 and 1971. A proper apprenticeship. We got them on the south coast.
Hack
Poor old Andy Robin. Rocco would have been much lighter than his dad. A peculiar match. I saw him. very early on and never imagined what he would become.
