TOOHEY'S NEWS: Coaching legend Rip Taylor has won more than he remembers

Listen to the latest episode of Toohey's News: The Podcast on Apple, Google, Spotify, or wherever you get your podcasts.

Robert "Rip" Taylor has forgotten more coaching achievements than most will ever achieve ... literally.

In 2015, the Newcastle Herald wrote of Taylor's then-36 year career that he had taken his teams to 30 finals series, 23 grand finals, and won 12 premierships at clubs including Lakes United, Parramatta, Bellingen and Grafton.

But when his long list of achievements were laid out in this week's episode of Toohey's News: The Podcast, even the legendary coach himself was surprised to hear one or two of his countless accolades.

Taylor joins host Barry Toohey this week to look back on his outstanding career, the players he fostered to rugby league greatness, and his one-time alter-ego as a wrestling superstar Rick Flair.
