1 Touch Judge Third State of Origin Game July 1, 1986

[Paul Carter]

Sorry to point this out. I notice for the Third State of Origin game between Queensland and New South Wales at Lang Park on July 1, 1986.
-That you have Bob Hunt as one of the Touch Judges for this game.
-Bob Hunt was not one of the Touch Judges for this game.
-Michael Ryan was the Touch Judge for this game Instead of Bob Hunt.
-Bob Hunt is listed as being one of the Touch Judges for this game. In the New South Wales Rugby League Referees Association Report from 1986. They also do say he was one of the Touch Judges for this game. In 100 Years: The Story of the CanterburyBankstown Referees which came out in 2021.
-My Source in regards to Michael Ryan being the Touch Judge for this game.
-I just watched the whole game on DVD.

Is it Michael Ryan or Peter Ryan? The program lists Ian Irwin & Peter Ryan as touch judges?

[Paul Carter]

It is Michael Ryan. They made a mistake in the programme.
