Vale Barry McDonald, Wallaby & Balmain Local who stood against Apartheid

23 Jan 2020 by Paul Timbrell

Balmain Rugby mourns the loss of Balmain local and ex-Wallaby Barry McDonald who passed away early this month.

He together with 6 other Wallabies boycotted the 1971 tour to Australia by a white-only South African squad. He was later honoured by Nelson Mandela with the Medal of Freedom.

May he rest in peace.
