“He’s a gentleman, he’s so humble, he’s a lovely guy, he gives everyone the time of day, that’s what we love about Gaz,” Joey said.

“The only thing I can ever think of that he gave a bit of lip was when Clint Jones was trying to tag him. “This is when he’d gone to the Gold Coast, and Clint Jones — not really good on the lip, but used to try a little bit — and he was getting stuck into Gaz about how he’s gone to the Gold Coast, he’s just gone up there for all this money and you’re taking all this money, trying to get into him.

“And Gaz just looked at him and said ‘well if you were any good, as good as me, you’d get paid this way too!’.

“Clint Jones just sorta looked at him and went ‘yep, fair point’.”

“I remember Clint Jones was telling us after the game he was trying to get stuck into Gaz and that was Gaz’s response and we all went ‘fair call!’”
