He fought as far west as Moree to the coast at Coffs Harbour & around the New England region. If anyone has any photos or videos I’d love to get copies done.

My grandfather Morgan (Morgie) Carroll fought with Sharmans' from when he would have been aged 15/16 onwards for a time in the depression years around Australia. I am currently trying to record something of this experience for my own kids to know something of their great grandfather so if anyone has any information on Moragn Carroll or Sharman's troup at the time I would really appreciate it. You can email me at robcarroll75@hotmail.com<br /><br />Best wishes,<br /><br />Rob CarrollAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03041541191742411034noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24338064.post-88648183531943414842021-01-25T21:26:56.743+11:002021-01-25T21:26:56.743+11:00Hi my uncle was Gregory McNamara love some picture...Hi my uncle was Gregory McNamara love some pictures of him rip uncle Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12310178537762813804noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24338064.post-15298224137068187392019-11-03T14:43:10.338+11:002019-11-03T14:43:10.338+11:00it's good that I am still getting comments her...it's good that I am still getting comments here, not so good that nobody knows the answers!

It was widely reported that Sands was booed for lowering himself to do a tent fight, but Sands replied that he was just looking for a work-out. Doug Warren fought two rounds with him again in March, with a photo of the bout being published in The Sun newspaper.<br />Any information on Doug Warren to sheridan.easdale@gmail.com<br />Thanks<br />SheridanSheridan Easdalenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24338064.post-72959794442894822042019-10-02T17:49:29.456+10:002019-10-02T17:49:29.456+10:00Now onto the person does one have any info on the ...Now onto the person does one have any info on the Bell boxers from the Yass authority space, Charlie, Eric, and Ken. all my family and would principally fought for Roy Bell however did fight with and against the Sharman organization sometimes. you'll be able to contact me at michael. <a href="https://www.totositegorilla.com" rel="nofollow">Safety playground</a> Knourjuahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06741406971604568188noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24338064.post-18371618007745966472018-11-07T15:05:58.958+11:002018-11-07T15:05:58.958+11:00Hi Michael and also Pani.
