On that basis Pat Richards must only be 1.5m tall.

John Woods used to make one stamp with his heel, stick the ball in that and then with virtually no effort kick a goal from 50 meters. Meninga and his sandcastle sculpture took so long you could make a trip to the bar and the bog and miss none of the game.

True, he was also the 1st player i saw kicking at goal with the ball set up horizontally on his sand mound.

It is 10 cm (which of course is near as dammit 4 inch) and the ref's cards are 10 cm/4 inch tall, enabling them to check it is so required.

I wonder what the Bulls would give to have John Woods back again at Odsal (perhaps even at his age), a natural footballer. The goal-kicking point is well made but Woods was a one-off in that department.
