Pretty sure he played for Sandhurst too and probably a couple of other CCL teams Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aupostie Posted April 12, 2013 Share Posted April 12, 2013 Everyone at the club have everything crossed for a speedy & full recovery for TC. One of the best players to have worn the green shirt & also one of the funniest men going Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MiddleMan2 Posted April 18, 2013 Share Posted April 18, 2013 The latest news on TC seems to be that he is still in an induced coma, but with some signs of improvement. His daughter, Holly, has posted on Twitter that she has started a campaign to get Tony back to the UK.

Kroonerside07 Posted April 18, 2013 Share Posted April 18, 2013 Quite simply one of the reasons I'm starting to fall out with footy at this level is there isn't and will never be people like TC around again. Playing against him use to be horrible!! Not only was he f'ing good but he knew how to wind you up!! Absoloute character and gentleman!! All the best to him and his family!

MiddleMan2 Posted April 25, 2013 Share Posted April 25, 2013 According to Twitter report, Tony was flown back to the UK yesterday. Apparently someone donated the shortfall to pay for the special flight. So good news, but Tony has a long battle to fight. Will try to find out more and keep forum members informed.
