It always got me seeing Billy Connolly doing "investiment advice" .

I mean seriously, I could see whatever bank he was pushing (I think HSBC??) going belly up and him going "You stupid Twat! You trusted a Comedian for investiment advice?
You think I know what the hell to do with Money? "

Ray Lindwall is one of the greatest fast bowlers of all time. He took 228 wickets at 23.03 and was also a handy lower order batsman. He scored 1,502 runs at an average of 21.15.
Apart from his cricket career he also had a Rugby League career at St George from 1940, 1942,1943 and 1946. He played 31 first grade games for the St George Dragons. He was a fullback and a goal kicker.

Unfortunately he missed out on St George’s first premiership in 1941 due to illness. He played in two grand finals for St George in 1942 and 1946. After the 1946 grand final he retired from Rugby League to concentrate on Cricket.
