Mr RONALDSON —I would like to pay tribute today to Tony `Plugger' Lockett. I make no apologies at all for being parochial this afternoon. At 10 past one yesterday, Plugger, who is a Ballarat boy, not a Sydney boy—we have lent him to Sydney for a while—smashed Gordon Coventry's record. To his wife Vicki, to Courtney and Chloe his children, to Howard his father and to Liz his mother, congratulations. Plugger, of course, played with the North Ballarat Football Club. He is a great Australian. It was a great day yesterday. Plugger, on behalf of all of us, well done.
