The NRL’s ultimate metre eater averages a whopping 228m a game for the Panthers, according to Champion Data. But he somehow still looks the freshest man on the field after every match.
“I remember that day, but I don’t know if it was 12km – it would have been closer to a 10km round trip,” Edwards recalls with a smile.“My mate only lived down the road, but living down the road is a little further than you think when you live in the country. Edwards is the tearaway Dally M Medal leader and is now spoken about in every NSW team selection debate.
One of the first numbers we were given was for Maurie Hulbert, who used to coach the Bellingen Valley-Dorrigo Magpies, and handed a teenage Edwards his first-grade debut. “I’m a mad Roosters fan – I always wanted Dylan to go to the Roosters, but typical Dylan, he would say, ‘I’m not pretty enough, and I don’t like coffee’,” Darby says.There was also former local high school PE teacher Wayne Burley, who spoke about Edwards being a representative cricketer, a handy leg-spinner and someone who “never dropped a ball” in the field.The other thing Edwards is renowned for is toughness. Blues coach Michael Maguire likes players who are tough.
