Maurice I remember so well in the early 1980's when he frequented the Commonwealth Bank Branch at Eastwood and the Eastwood business men's club!
He loved a beer
Loved a chat
And I remember him supporting the Woods when I played with them!
RIP Maurie
Those magnificent men ..........

We sat next to the Ellem clan on the balcony at all Eastwood home games. We have missed this year as we moved to Qld but will always remember Maurie sitting there amongst his family watching the Mighty Woods play. Our thoughts go to his family on this very sad day.
