Austin was a decent pro, although he puffed is way through the Rothmans as I recall ...
Remember seeing him at a club night in the Far Post and he was as I recall the only pro smoking that night.
Peddelty, we never got the best from as he suffered a fractured skull early on and eventually retired ( and he was the larger amount of the makeweight amount I think). I recall he tried to then go into refereeing to be fast tracked ( on the basis that pros would make the best refs....not convinced myself)
But yeah we got ripped off a treat ....
