Between 1987-89 he won three consecutive Callahan Medals as Williamstown’s Best and Fairest. At 37, he also won the Liston Medal to go with his Brownlow. Aged 40 he won the Norm Goss Medal as best on ground in the 1990 VFA Grand Final and was selected as first ruck in the club’s Team of the Century.
