About the Author:
Gordon Bray is one of our longest serving sports commentators. His name is is synonymous with televised rugby union and his distinctive commentary style remains as much a part of the Australian game as a George Gregan tackle or a David Campese goose-step. Gordon called his first rugby test match on radio for the ABC in Bordeaux in 1976. Since then Bray has called more than 350 test matches and called every milestone victory by the Wallabies over the next 40 years, including both Rugby World Cup triumphs. After 25 years with ABC Sport he moved to commercial television and spent 16 years at the Seven Network and 10 years at Ten. Bray is the author and editor of seven books on Rugby Union including best sellers From The Ruck and The Australian Rugby Companion. He was made a Member of the Order of Australia in 2005, is a past recipient of the prestigious Penguin Award for sports broadcasting and is an ambassador for Legacy Australia.
