My father was a fast athlete. I could run 100m in the low 11sec range. My Mum's family were also genuinely good athletes. But... my brother couldn't run out of sight on a dark night. What does this tell me? That my parents' " cross" worked or "clcked" with me, but not my bro. I am convinced that this is true for most species, whether it be thoroughbreds ( Kingston Towns bro couldn't go a yard), standardbreds, greyhounds etc. It's a "CLICK" thing. JMO
Hi Patrick,
Apologies for being off topic but was your brother wolfman. If he is I agree he couldnt run a quick100m lol but could take a fair mark and kick a bag full .
Gidday Nathan, yes he is. He's a year older than me. As you're probably aware he played Aussie rules until his late 40's while I converted to rugby league when we moved to Qld in our teens. My rules background certainly helped with my rugby & I had a 12year A grade career. Tony (wolfman) isn't a dog man but our father was & his father before him
