Have lived in the UK for 15 years now but grew up listening to you calling the Raids. I can still place your voice… just like Jim Maxwell with the cricket. Enjoy retirement.

Congratulations, Tim, on an absolute stellar career. There is no finer or dedicated caller of sport than you, and you should feel justifiably proud of your achievements over many years. Your loyalty and friendship to many has been unwavering. Take care my friend.

Thanks Tim. It was great to have as part of the team for so long. Starting as the most passionate stats man to being a sideline eye with the ability to secure sine great interviews with the players . Tim

I met Tim in 1993 & hounded him about the Raiders straight away. 6 years later he foolishly let me hang around the commentary box. 25 years on I don’t have adequate words to express my gratitude to Tim for the immense support & opportunities he’s given me. A true Canberra Legend.

Thank you for those kind words Packy. The time we spent on the road over the years were so enjoyable and I must admit I was never sure what I was going to get when I went to Packy on the sideline. All the best mate

Only the great ones last the time that u have & maintain the highest of standards. Never met anyone who gave so much of themselves to others & expected nothing in return. Honoured to be part of journey & call you a 'mate'. The kid from Condobolin has done his family & ACT proud.
