DESCRIPTION

George was a dogged old style hooker who never took a backward step. Piggins followed on from Elwyn Walters as the souths No 12. (that was the hookers No. in those days)
His legendary confrontations with the Manly wild pom Mal Reilly were famous. Rugby League was the last thing on their minds when their paths crossed on the paddock.

George Piggins inspirational skills and fighting quality were shown when he as President of South Sydney took on and won the right to have the Mighty Souths (and I am a Shark Supporter) readmitted to their rightfull spot as a valued member of the national rugby league. "Onya George"
