Gordie's Tales [Paperback] Tallis, Gorden

Rugby league legend Gordie Tallis doesn't just tell stories — he tackles them. In this collection, the former Broncos and Kangaroos enforcer dishes out tales from the trenches of professional rugby league with the same intensity he brought to the field. Expect locker room chaos, on-field warfare, the mental game behind the physical brutality, and what it really takes to earn respect in one of the world's toughest sports. Tallis writes like he played: no holds barred, fiercely honest, and with a dry sense of humor that cuts through the bravado. Whether you grew up watching State of Origin or you're just curious what happens when 110kg men collide at full speed, this is your all-access pass to a world most never see. Perfect for league fans, nostalgia hunters, and anyone who appreciates a good war story told over a beer.
