William Albert Whitehead 1968 South Juniors with ton of Coasters bt previously unbeaten South Sydney. Chang Jnr will remember night b4.
Carole Williams 2 years ago I was crossing the street in Karamea I heard someone call out my name. I turned around and it was John Hibbs and his wife Joyce Routhan ( Maiden name) it was great to see them. John my cousin through my Mum, Joyce lived across the railway line from us in Cameron's. I told them the story of how when we were kids we used to spy on them pashing up in the flax at Cameron's Beach, They were teenagers I was a bit younger!!
