| read Stevos, Barry McDermotts, Sean Longs and Wayne Bennets think there all good and worth a read, there are some differences in style between them. Longs book has bits of comedy and funny stories throughout whereas Bennets is more motivational.
Also read Lee Jacksons but didnt think much of it too be honest.

Hi,
Not in this book, I think it may have been in Dave Hadfield's "XIII Winters" but I don't have a copy of that to hand.

| 'The Forbidden Game' by Mike Rylance, whilst not an autobiography, is well worth a read. It's about the efforts of the French RU and government to suppress the development of Rugby League. Some of the dealings take your breath away.

| Brett Kenny "The Natural"
Peter Sterling "Sterlo"
Steve Price "Be your Best"
Danny Buderus "Talent is not enough"
Shane Webcke "Hard Road: Tough Thoughts on a Tough Game"
Brad Fittler "Freddy"
Jack Gibson "Last Word: On Coaching, Winning, Motivation and Inspiration"
I recently gave a lot of books by players in the 80's & 90's away, Ray Price, Mark Graham, Mario Fenech etc
All good Books worth a read some pretty old now.
Plenty of others that I have forgotten, never enjoyed Wayne Bennetts books, expected lots and could not be bothered finishing them.
