Thanks Max.

I forgot to update Athol Nixon profile after separating the games.

All should be good now.

Quote from: Max Turner on 11 December, 2025, 06:04:46 PM- Jack McPherson's full name is Allan John Nelson McFarlane
- Sorry, I must've been daydreaming for Jack McPherson, his full name should be Allan John Nelson McPherson. I listed his surname as McFarlane for some reason

Quote from: Max Turner on 11 December, 2025, 06:04:46 PM- The A Nixon who played for St George was not Canterbury's Alf Nixon, it should be Athol Nixon. Born 9 March 1922 in Moruya NSW, died 23 August 1996. Full name Athol Raymont Nixon
- I can see Alf and Athol's profiles are now separated, but I don't think Athol's details were saved to his profile (also, yes, the middle name 'Raymont' seems to be the intended spelling)

- St George's George Davies, death date should be 28 July 1976 (instead of 29th)
- John Brierley's name should be Jack Brierley as his full name was actually just Jack Brierley. Additionally, his nickname wa1s Bot
- Jim Wearmouth, DOB should be 27 December 1908 (instead of 4 Sep 1909)
- Jack Dempsey's DOB has come from Wikipedia. He was born on an unknown date in 1907.
- Dick Healy, born in Byron Bay NSW. Full name Joseph Richard Healy
- Alister Clarke's first name should be Alastair. Born in Lismore NSW, died 26 September 1988. Full name Alastair John Clarke
- Cedric Turvey, born 10 July 1917 in Belmore NSW, died 10 October 1991. Full name Cedric William Turvey
- Alf Saddler's surname should be Sadler. Born 18 October 1906 in Waterloo NSW, died 5 July 1975. Full name Alfred David Sadler

In the playoff I suggest as Don Rogers didn't play that Les Ewing was winger he is not listed in the paper as an injury therefore he didn't play rd 3 also SMH 18/3 says both teams used all their 4 replacements so I think Ray Payne was the 4th replacement and he wasn't a replacement in rd 3.

So I have updated RLP to reflect what I believe are the correct teams let me know what you think it all lines up with the annual report games.

Still on rd 3 The Sun 2/3 lists Rogers & Cotter as wingers and the DM lists Rogers & Ewing but Daily Tele 2/3 states that Ewing had to withdraw due to gastric and was replaced by Cotter. So looks highly likely Ewing didn't play rd 3 unless he made a miraculous recovery. Therefore a good chance the backline was Rogers, Lowther, Cole & Cotter unless there was a late withdrawal.

Rogers didn't played in the Playoff game and his 4 games are Rd 2-4 & SF, SMH 17/3 states that Rogers was injured for the playoff game.

I'll check the rest out tomorrow.

I'm OK with Rd 1 & 2.

Rd 3 both the Sunday Mirror & Sunday Telegraph say that Lowther & Cole were the centres and the SMH 12/3 states that Stringer an unknown who had been playing lower grades was selected to replace Bernie Lowther for the semi-final so seems likely he would have only been used as a replacement prior to the semi final so I would say Winchester was probably was a starter on the wing and Stringer reserve.

I check the rest over the weekend.
