Our heroes are enthralled by a chat with Cowboys legend and Sharks assistant coach Josh Hannay; who reflects on the footy adage ‘if you’re good enough, you’re old enough,’ and his journey since being named to debut as a 16 year old schoolboy at Townsville Granmar, and subsequently banned for being too young.
