Crap! Sad news. RIP Nails. Thoughts with his family and kids. Losing a Dad when he's so young. Sometimes life is not fair.

I feel there has been a genuine oversight in my personal supporter history in having zero idea he was an indigenous man. Came over with a clutch of superstars in the mid-eighties and played some serious footy for us. Recall him snagging 4 for SA in a SOO game. Could play. Go well, Nails.
A lot of players and fans in SA knew just how good he was and many rated him on equal footing with Platten. Nails had been a star over here and was AA the year before he headed over to you guys......and he was the only player in the universe that knew he was as good as Platten.
Best/quickest hands I have see in a carlton jumper
RIP Mark
A genuine question Arr0w, but better hands than Diesel?
I still remember a game towards the end of his time with us, where he suffered an injury and ended up playing on one leg. I suspect it was against Melbourne, and from memory, he did pretty well!
He was born in 1961
Came over in '87 a year after we got our guns from SA.
I too didn't realise he was an indigenous man as well.
