Some old gems...
Monday, May 21, 2007
All right, I know
everyone is bored while Michael is away, so I'm
posting some old articles for your enjoyment...
From 1986 -- a 17-year-old Michael discusses
his future
plans.
From 1994 -- while playing for GPS, Michael is
called up by the
Queensland Reds and heads for Argentina
to start several games.
The article also details the motorcycle accident that
nearly derailed his rugby career.
From 1995 -- Michael's first article for The
Courier-Mail. Yes, it's the infamous
"stripsearched
on the way back from Vietnam" article that helped earn him his
'Warco' nickname... before he'd even covered a war!
From 2002 -- during a break from covering the war in
Afghanistan, Michael accepted an invitation to
attend
Australian Fashion Week in Sydney. It's a huge event, and
he has a unique perspective. Did I mention the photo
of him in a suit and tie?
Enjoy!
