A powerful batsman, particularly off the back foot, Justin Poole had the ability to take the game away from the opposition in a short period. Teammate Adam Dale recalls a highly skilled and talented cricketer, a batsman who was adept anywhere in the order, excellent fielder and handy bowler. A very good team man who could dominate a game and did so over many seasons and a key player when Wynnum Manly District Cricket Club won the 1995/96 first grade premiership.
