Hi Ted,

The Daily Mirror tackle count clearly shows Garry Hughes at 5/8 in this game
You cannot view this attachment.
Mark Hughes is reported to have burst blood vessels in his left bicep the SMH reports Canterbury will be without him for this game and also the following week reports he will be unavailable for the Newtown game.

I see RLW lists him but I believe this is wrong based on news reports & published tackle counts.

I note that you have Garry Hughes listed as playing 5/8 for Canterbury in this game.

Mark Hughes was listed in Big League & Rugby League Week as playing in this game instead of Garry. I looked this up in 1999 at the National Library when the only way to get a copy was to print the page you wanted which was too expensive & time consuming at the time to do so many pages.

The Bulldogs history website is still unable to be accessed as well & I couldn't access the page for this game from the first version of the database either.

The Christensen YB suggests that Garry played the game. The Big League annual seems to be out 2 games for each player as is the RLW Xmas special.

Was Garry listed in the Daily Mirror or Sun tackle counts instead of Mark? Was there a mention in one of the articles that Mark pulled out of the match?

I intend on contact the Bulldogs again to see what's happening with their database. I didn't get the right person last time.
