FOG #158 Nate Myles | Gordonvale Grit, 32 Origins & Maroon Medal Winner

Nate Myles is FOG #158 — a proud Far North Queenslander who built an outstanding 234-game NRL career on toughness, professionalism and an uncompromising team-first mindset. A 32-game Queensland State of Origin representative and Australian Kangaroo, Nate was a key figure through the Maroons’ eight-straight era and twice claimed the Ron McAuliffe Medal as Queensland’s best player in a series, then won the Wally Lewis Medal in 2012 as Player of the Series.

Raised in Gordonvale just south of Cairns, Nate’s journey took him from Southern Suburbs juniors to Sydney with the Canterbury-Bankstown Bulldogs, then across stints with the Sydney Roosters, Gold Coast Titans, Manly Sea Eagles and Melbourne Storm. Whether it was the grind of the early Sydney years, the pride of pulling on the Maroon jersey, or the standards that kept Queensland hungry at the top, Nate’s story is all heart, hard work and Queensland spirit.

A front-rower who never wanted a free ride and never expected one.

FOG #84 Danny Moore | Townsville Talent, Manly Premiership & A Winner on Both Sides of the World

Danny Moore is FOG #84 — a Townsville product who carved out a terrific top-grade career across Australia and the UK as a powerful outside back. An Australian international and Queensland State of Origin representative, Danny played at centre and on the wing in a tough era, earning his place through hard work, reliability and a quiet confidence.

He debuted in first grade for Manly in 1991, later becoming part of a Sea Eagles side that played in three straight grand finals and lifted the trophy in 1996. Danny then headed to England, winning again with Wigan and becoming the first player to win a grand final in both the northern and southern hemispheres. At representative level, he pulled on the Maroon jersey in Paul Vautin’s famed 1995 “Neville Nobodies” clean sweep and also earned Australian selection.

A proud Queenslander who never forgot where he came from.

FOG #64 Mark Coyne | Sunnybank Junior, Dragons Captain & The Miracle Try

Mark Coyne is FOG #64 — a Brisbane-born centre who built a remarkable career through loyalty, resilience and a deep love of the Maroon jersey. From junior footy at South Sunnybank to captaining the St George Dragons and later St George Illawarra, Coyney became one of the game’s most respected professionals in a tough era.

A premiership winner with Past Brothers in Brisbane before making the move south, Mark went on to play 233 top-grade games, including three grand finals, and earned the rare honour of captaining both Dragons entities. At representative level, he played 19 State of Origin matches for Queensland and nine Tests for Australia, including the 1995 World Cup triumph at Wembley.

Of course, he’s also etched into Origin folklore as the man who finished off the Miracle Try in 1994 — a moment that still gives Queenslanders goosebumps.

A proud Queenslander and a true Dragon who earned everything the hard way.
