Letters: A Colossus on the rugby fieldMARTIN DE RUYTER Doug MurcottFurther to your item on the passing of former Southland rugby legend Doug Murcott. Murcott was a colossus on the rugby field in every sense of the word, whether as an outstanding prop for whatever team he played for or for his longevity during a lengthy first class career. The only thing I remember about that was that Adam Hamilton was the leader of the National Party and member for Invercargill.
