 Yes that's him Sandy...over to you.

 

John Cootes (born 19 August 1941) is an Australian former professional rugby league footballer and Roman Catholic priest.[2] An Australian international representative three-quarter back and adept goal-kicker, he played club football in the Newcastle Rugby League for Western Suburbs during the 1960s and also later worked as a television commentator and presenter.

 

Cootes hailed from Newcastle and was trained during childhood by Clive Churchill and later played for the Lazio rugby union club in 1966 while on scholarship to study theology at Rome's Propaganda College.[3]

 

In 1967 he commenced playing in the Newcastle Rugby League for Western Suburbs.[4]

 

Father John Cootes became the first Roman Catholic priest to play international rugby league when he was selected for Australias tour of New Zealand in 1969. Also that year he was named New South Wales' Country Rugby League player of the year.[5] He made appearances for Australia as a three-quarter back in 1969 and 1970.[6] He played in the Newcastle Rugby League grand final-winning Wests side in 1970.[7] Cootes' last Test match was the Final of the 1970 World Cup which was against Great Britain at the Headingley ground in Leeds, England. A particularly violent match, Australia won 12-7, with Cootes crossing in the first half, becoming the tournament's top try-scorer.

 

Having obtained a dispensation to marry, Cootes wed in 1972 in Arizona, USA.[8] Eventually he left the priesthood and opened a chain of furniture stores in New South Wales.[9] After football, Cootes also enjoyed a long and successful media career, becoming a sports commentator for Channel 10. In 1979 he was appointed as John Singleton's replacement as host of Channel 10's Saturday Night Live programme.[10] He left Channel 10 in 1983 to concentrate on a business venture, but returned to television in 1986.[11]

 

He was named at centre in West Rosellas RLFC's team of the century.

Right you are BG.  For most of her career, she was not blonde.

 

 

Jane Wyman (born Sarah Jane Mayfield; January 5, 1917 September 10, 2007)[1] was an American actress, singer, dancer, and philanthropist whose career spanned seven decades. She was also the first wife of actor Ronald Reagan (later the 40th President of the United States). They married in 1940 and divorced in 1949.

 

Wyman's professional career began at age 16 in 1933, when she signed with Warner Bros. Wyman followed common practice at the time when she added three years to her age. A popular contract player, she frequently played the leading lady, her roles including starring alongside William Hopper in Public Wedding (1937), Ronald Reagan and Eddie Albert in Brother Rat (1938) and its sequel Brother Rat and a Baby (1940), Dennis Morgan in Bad Men of Missouri (1941), Marlene Dietrich in Stage Fright (1950), and Sterling Hayden in So Big (1953). She was also featured opposite Rock Hudson in Magnificent Obsession (1954) and All That Heaven Allows (1955), both directed by Douglas Sirk. She received an Academy Award for Best Actress for her performance in Johnny Belinda (1948), and was a three-time winner of a Golden Globe. She achieved continuing success in the television soap opera Falcon Crest (19811990), in which Wyman played the lead role of villainous matriarch Angela Channing
