Russell Fairfax

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Russell Fairfax (Sydney, Australia) was an Australian rugby union player before switching codes and having a successful rugby league career.

Fairfax attended Matravile high and played for La Perouse rugby union club in his junior years, before joining the Randwick club. In the early 70's Fairfax played in 8 rugby union tests for Australia.

In 1974 , the fullback, joined Eastern Suburbs rugby league club. An instant sensation in the new code. His unothodox play and long blonde flowing locks made him a crowd favourite. Fairfax played in over 100 matches for Easts and won premierships with that club in 1974 and 1975. Fairfax represented both Sydney and NSW during his career but a broken leg suffered during the height of his career in the mid 1975 season probably prevented him from playing for Australia also in that rugby code. He played the final season of his career - 1981, with the South Sydney club.

After an usuccessful stint in coaching Fairfax enjoys a career in sports journalism with Fox Sports. He is married with two children.
