Certainly was the wild man of league in his day, ran the ball with such ferocity and hit hard in defence as well. RIP Robbo.

Died at 66. That is terribly young. I feel for his family. Thanks for posting this article.

Typical Canterbury forward, tough and fiery. Ran at a million miles an hour. Had a real cult following. Vale Geoff.

As a Magpie man I hated all Canterbury players except Robbo.
Robbo ran like we want every one of our forwards to run, like a wild man. He was one of those players you really looked forward to watching.
Another one gone too young.

You done well Robbo, hopefully there is peace wherever you landed.

What an legend from back in the day - loved the way he played football. RIP Robbo - thanks so much for the memories.

That guy would have attempted to run through a brick wall. He was as tough as forwards get and young up & coming forwards could learn a lot from watching his games. RIP Robbo

Yep ditto! Loved Robbo, always thought he would’ve fitted right in with the Magpie teams of this time. RIP Robbo
