Those of us that were lucky enough to know Cooky will remember him as one of the funniest and smartest blokes in the game. There was no situation that he couldn’t talk his way into or out of. Which is why he’s the only bloke I know that managed to make $850 a shift spraying at Cliffs in 2008 and then get straight on the Jumbo! Originally from Queensland, he was known all over. One of the hardest workers I’ve ever seen and a friend that always had your back. One of the closest friends I’ve ever had and I will never forget him. Until we meet again brother. Bricey.
