About Greg Alexander

  • Gregory Peter Stephen "Greg" Alexander (born 4 March 1965), also known by the nickname of "Brandy", is an Australian former professional rugby league footballer who played in the 1980s and 1990s, who has since become a radio, television commentator and noted rugby league journalist.
  • Originally a goal-kicking half-back, in his career he played for and captained the Penrith Panthers and the Auckland Warriors clubs and also represented his country and state on several occasions.
  • Alexander's position for the majority of his career was at half-back, however early in his career – particularly in representative sides – he was moved to fullback.
  • It was this ability to play different positions with great success that saw Alexander make both the 1986 and the 1990 Kangaroo Tours. Alexander actually played a test on the 1990 Tour against France on the wing, scoring a try and capping it off with a memorable gymnastics style backflip in celebration.
  • This was also his last test appearance.
