Graeme Hughes

Author of Dogs at War

Graeme Hughes represented NSW in both rugby league and cricket. With his brothers, Mark and Garry, he was an integral member of the Canterbury-Bankstown Bulldogs sides known as 'The Entertainers' and was one of the instigators of the famous try that sealed the Bulldogs' grand-final victory in 1980.

On his retirement, Graeme continued to play cricket for Petersham-Marrickville, while establishing himself as a respected media commentator. He broadcast rugby league and the Seoul Olympic Games for the TEN network, and later called the football for Channel 7. In recent years he has had a well-documented falling out with the Bulldogs Club and a number of old teammates, and says that he is writing this book to set the record straight. Today Graeme runs a media events organisation as well as hosting the widely-syndicated Talkin'Sport show on Radio 2SM
