A St George junior (Hurstville United), Anthony Mundine
will be remembered as one of the most naturally gifted
yet controversial players in the history of St George.
Never short of attracting a headline, Mundine played four
seasons with the Dragons before joining Brisbane in 1997
at the height of the Super League war.
Anthony returned to Saints in 1998 and was named 'player's
player' for that year. In 1999, he was in electricfying
form, playing a key role as Saints charged towards the
Grand Final.
The son of champion boxer Tony Mundine, Anthony left Rugby
League in 2000 to take up a career in professional boxing.
In 2003, Anthony Mundine defeated Antwun Echols to win
the vacant world WBA Super-Middleweight championship. |
