On this his 75th birthday (December 28th) it’s an appropriate opportunity to recognise the outstanding career of St George Hall of Fame member, Steve Bernard.

In his early career Bernard was known for his pace and venom, at St George he developed greater wile and cunning while still possessing the ability to put the batsman on the back foot. These skills saw him finish his six seasons at St George with 212 first grade wickets at 14.58. Remarkably he captured these wickets at a rate of one wicket every seven overs, any wonder he was the ‘go to’ for his captain.
