Player Profile: Eddo Brandes

Brandes was a chicken farmer. Often sledged, he objected to being called chicken, and always clarified, “I’m not chicken, I’m a chicken farmer”. That was the early days. Then one day McGrath asked him why he was so fat. Brandes replied – “everytime I @&!# your wife she feeds me a biscuit.” Nobody called Brandes' chicken no more.
