He trained just a few winners ..
Think he was 92.. One of the last old shool trainers.
Remembering winning plenty on one of his better nags in Diatribe.

RIP old fella.

yep scoob is correct passed away at aged 92 in a geelong nursing home, obviously one of the greats & i wonder how many realise he actually came from south australia & therefore started his training career in adelaide


RIP GEORGE
