Bill Davies – 28 April 2017

Recently I posted in relation Alan Victor Dwyer, who I served with a Campsie and Lakemba back in the late 70,s and early 80,s. Alan and I were also close mates outside the job. My family and his spent many outings together. Alan died today at abot 8am, at Nepean Hospital, after a short but uncomfortable , battle with throat cancer. The Cancer spread to his leg and other locations on his body. I have no idea of funeral arrangements. I am in contact with his wife, Narelle. I will post any further info when it comes to hand.

Bill Davies – 20 April 2017

Not even 12 months ago, I met up with Alan Dwyer, to celebrate his 80th Birthday. He looked, moved and spoke like a bloody healthy 50 year old. Unfortunately now I have to report that Al is not doing so great. In fact, things have turned pretty Sh$%y for him. Al has cancer. He now has a trachy. He cannot speak and has trouble breathing, due to congestion on his lungs. The outlook is not great. I know many in our group , know Alan. I have spoken with his wife, Narelle, who has agreed to let me now tell of his plight. Al is in ICU, Nepean Hospital. Visiting from 11am. 2 persons at a time. Narelle tells me he perks up when he has a visitor. he communicates by writing on a board.

Kevin Piper Condolences to you and the family. I worked with Greg between 1976 and 1979 at Central Police Station No. 1 Division. To keep his arms in condition he used to carry a 50 pound (23 kg) steel ball to and from work every shift in his Gladstone bag. Here’s a little feel-good story. Way back in the 1970’s we were involved in a car chase after a criminal. Greg was the senior man on the Ford F100 caged truck with a Constable Dennis Northey driving. I was in a car nearby and headed off to assist. The Chase went north across the harbour bridge, and turned back, travelling south. As the crim’s car went through the toll plaza boom gates, ( There used to be a 20cent toll on the bridge ), the boom gate lowered, and Dennis kept going, smashing through the gate. The Chase continued along the Cahill Expressway and onto Macquarie Street, where the crim stopped, jumped out and ran off, jumping a very large set of solid double wooden gates. As I stopped at the spot, I saw Dennis climbing over the gates. Greg jumped out of the truck, and ran full pelt toward the gates, smashing into them with his frame, which burst them open. Dennis was on top of the gates swinging back and forth, as we entered through the gates and saw the crim out cold on the ground. He had been hiding behind the gates, and the force with which Greg hit those gates, caused them to swing out with so much force it knocked the crim out. A wonderful man, and a huge loss to your family.

Broadcaster (Fairfield, NSW : 1935 – 1978), Tuesday 15 August 1967, page 12

State runners coach Holroyd

Top State competitors will give Holroyd Amateur Athletic Club a boost next season with coaching assistance.

Reg Tarte will give advice to the club’s walkers and Greg Nicol will coach the javelin throwers. His influence has already shown in the times of Holroyd members Richard Kidd and Russell Jenkins, both 14-year-olds.

Russell Jenkins recently won the Western Suburbs and NSW Walkers’ Club trophy in the fast time of 28 minutes, 44 seconds for three miles. Jenkins has improved his time over distance events by two minutes a mile. Officials claim this improvement should lead to his selection in the NSW sub-junior team (under 17) soon.

The club hopes to improve in javelin events following the coaching by Greg Nicol. He is the reigning State champion and has also won the decathlon title in this State. The club’s coaching on Tuesday and Thursday nights is at present serving a dual purpose.
