More about Darryl Brohman:

Darryl attended Wavell High School in Brisbane and graduated in 1973. He joined the NRL, making 114 first grade appearances with Penrith and Canterbury – and winning a premiership with the Bulldogs in the mid 80s.

Darryl represented Queensland in two State of Origin games and was considered unlucky not to have represented Australia – indeed, it’s widely considered that he would have played for Australia had he not had his jaw smashed in an illegal tackle by Les Boyd while playing for Queensland’s State of Origin team in 1983.

Darryl Brohman supports several charities including the Sydney Children’s Hospital and the Prostrate Cancer Foundation.
