On 23 June, 1956 the sergeant was involved in the violent arrest of an offender at the Commercial Hotel, Junee. During the incident the sergeant suffered injuries to his kidneys which subsequently led to a number of operations and ongoing medical treatment for many years afterward.

On the morning of 14 April, 1962 Sergeant Cavanagh, then the Officer In Charge of the Morisset Police Station, collapsed on duty and was conveyed to the Newcastle Hospital. He remained in a semi-coma until he sadly passed away a week later. The cause of death was kidney failure caused by his injuries in 1956.

R. E. Cavanagh of Junee was promoted from Constable 1st Class to Senior Constable around 24 December 1954 as advertised in The Sydney Morning Herald, Friday 24 December 1954 on page 3 of 12.

 

The sergeant was born on 15 March 1915 and joined the New South Wales police Force on 25 August, 1939. At the time of his death he was stationed at Morisset.

Memorial / Plaque / Monument located at

August 2000: Overview of Liverpool ‘I’ District Bulls Police Rugby League
Football Club, later known as the Macarthur Bulls Police Rugby League
Football Club. Liverpool ‘I’ District Police Rugby League was an inaugural
member of the NSW Police Rugby League Competition formed in 1970.
The teams later competed annually for the ‘Fred Hanson Shield’ – he was
Police Commissioner 1972 to 1976. The team was co-ordinated from the Liverpool
Detectives Office by Detective Sergeants Leo Purcell, Jack Hilder and assisted by
Detective Senior Constable Pat Casey. Another local, Detective
Sergeant Frank Owens was a keen supporter of the Police Rugby
League, but sadly he suffered a heart attack and died whilst watching a
game at Moore Park, in May 1970. Liverpool Detectives decided to
donate a ‘Shield’ honouring Frank Owens, which they named the ‘Frank
Owens Memorial Best and Fairest Trophy’. Mrs Owens attended the Clubs presentation
nights for several years presenting the trophy in memory of her husband. Around 1975,
the Club was co-ordinated from Green Valley Police Station by Mel Clews, Fred Whitton,
Barry Ryan, Alan Stephens, Mick Rees, Colin Cameron and Stephen Reeves.

The ‘Frank Owens Shield‘ remained until 1989, when a new shield was struck honouring Constable
1/c. Mark Burns, a former player who was tragically killed in a motor vehicle collision,
whilst on duty.

The shield was donated by Stephen Reeves and named
the ‘Mark Shrimpy Burns Memorial Best and Fairest Shield‘ and was
presented until 2019.

In 2020 a new shield was struck and renamed the
‘Steve Reeves Best and Fairest Player Shield’. Bulls President, Ryan
Crossingham (Detective) and his committee met to rename this shield
and various names were put forward. In the end they selected the ‘Steve Reeves Best
and Fairest Player Shield ‘. The following criteria assisted in their decision. Stephen
Reeves was a Life Member, past President, player, captain, coach and representative
player who played for the Club between 1972 and 1988. Previously, Reeves was named
as a member of the Clubs greatest team.

On 16 March, 1988 Constable Zucchetti was driving along the Oxley Highway, Tamworth. Constable Burns was a passenger in the vehicle.

At the time both were attached to the State Drug Crime Commission and were engaged in an operation in the area.

While negotiating a right hand bend in the highway the vehicle crossed onto the incorrect side of the road and collided with a semi trailer.

Constable Zucchetti was killed instantly and Constable Burns died the following morning in the Tamworth District Hospital.

Constable Zucchetti was born in 1959 and joined the New South Wales Police Force on 14 January, 1980. At the time of his death he was attached to the State Drug Crime Commission ( forerunner to the current NSW Crime Commission ).

Constable 1st Class Mark Burns (1962 – 1988)

Mark John BURNS, # 20008

Constable’s 1st Class Mark Burns and Class Craig Zucchetti were attached to the State Drug Crime Commission (forerunner to the current NSW Crime Commission). Both officers had been selected to this branch because to their tenacity and proven investigation skills.

On Wednesday 16 March 1988, they were part of a large team of police who were performing surveillance duties on a major crime syndicate in the state’s north-west.

About midday Craig and Mark were travelling together in an unmarked police vehicle along the Oxley Highway just outside of Tamworth when they were involved in a head on crash with a truck.

Craig was killed instantly.

Following the arrival of emergency services Mark was taken to Tamworth District Hospital in a critical condition. He passed away from his injuries the following day without regaining consciousness.

So as to not compromise the investigation the officers had been working on, only very limited details of the crash was publicly released at the time.

Mark was also a sports enthusiast and had played representative football for the NSWPF.

At the time of their deaths the Police Commissioner at the time was quoted as saying, “Policing is a unique profession which places great demands upon those fortunate enough to heed its calling as a career. The very fact that two fine young officers lost their lives in the course of their duty serves as a poignant reminder of the inherent dangers which go hand in hand with police service.”

On 16 March, 1988 Constable Zucchetti was driving along the Oxley Highway, Tamworth. Constable Burns was a passenger in the vehicle.

At the time both were attached to the State Drug Crime Commission and were engaged in an operation in the area.

While negotiating a right hand bend in the highway the vehicle crossed onto the incorrect side of the road and collided with a semi trailer.

Constable Zucchetti was killed instantly and Constable Burns died the following morning in the Tamworth District Hospital.

Constable Zucchetti was born in 1959 and joined the New South Wales Police Force on 14 January, 1980. At the time of his death he was attached to the State Drug Crime Commission ( forerunner to the current NSW Crime Commission ).

Constable 1st Class Craig Zucchetti (1959 – 1988)

Constable’s 1st Class Craig Zucchetti and Mark Burns were attached to the State Drug Crime Commission (forerunner to the current NSW Crime Commission). Both officers had been selected to this branch because to their tenacity and proven investigation skills.

On Wednesday 16 March 1988, they were part of a large team of police who were performing surveillance duties on a major crime syndicate in the state’s north-west.

About midday Craig and Mark were travelling together in an unmarked police vehicle along the Oxley Highway just outside of Tamworth when they were involved in a head on crash with a truck.

Craig was killed instantly.

Following the arrival of emergency services Mark was taken to Tamworth District Hospital in a critical condition. He passed away from his injuries the following day without regaining consciousness.

So as to not compromise the investigation the officers had been working on, only very limited details of the crash was publicly released at the time.

Prior to transferring to the State Drug Crime Commission, Craig and been attached to the Highway Patrol and had been a member of the NSWPF for eight years.

Outside of his policing duties he was highly active in the local community establishing a Community Watch program, a basketball club and engaged in fund raising for a beach patrol with his surf lifesaving club of which he was deeply involved in. Along with this Craig was also a keen surfer and rugby player.

At the time of their deaths the Police Commissioner at the time was quoted as saying, “Policing is a unique profession which places great demands upon those fortunate enough to heed its calling as a career. The very fact that two fine young officers lost their lives in the course of their duty serves as a poignant reminder of the inherent dangers which go hand in hand with police service.”

A GoFundMe page has been established ( by others ) and can be found on this link:      gofund.me/774e84e0b

My name is David Vea and I represent the players, coaches and volunteers of Randwick Rugby Club and we are distraught at the loss of one of our most loyal clubmen ever in Peter Meagher or ‘Marzo’ as everyone universally called him.
Marzo was a much loved figure and absolute legend in our club, with over 40 years of voluntary involvement, he was one of the heart and soul figures of Randwick Rugby. He was also a highly respected long term referee who was well known in Sydney Rugby circles. In his professional life, Peter served for almost 4 decades in the NSW Police Force and retired as a Detective Sergeant, where he was hugely respected by his Police colleagues.
Tragically, Peter was one of the 15 victims of the Bondi Beach shooting and he was sadly lost while performing yet another voluntary role as a photographer to support the ill-fated Chanukah by the Sea event. Peter developed a close affinity with the Jewish Community and supported them for many years voluntarily photographing events and the like, as a result of his wife Virginia Wynne-Markham working at Kesser Torah College in Dover Heights. They both had a strong connection with Rabbi Schlanger, who was also tragically killed at Bondi.
While we are one of the best known clubs in rugby, at our roots Randwick Rugby is simply an amateur community club. Since this awful tragedy unfolded, we have had so many people reach out to see how they could support Marzo, so our player leadership group unanimously decided to it would seek to raise funds in his honour to help financially support his devastated wife, Virginia. Therefore, we have set up this GoFundMe Page to give people the most tangible way to do so.
Virginia is dealing with unimaginable grief and huge uncertainty with the loss of her much loved husband. While they were an uncle and aunt to many nieces and nephews, Peter and Virginia had no children of their own, so he is an irreplaceable hole in her life day to day.
The tragic irony is that Peter spent so long working in the dangerous front line as a Police Officer, but was struck down in retirement while voluntarily taking photos at what was supposed to be a joyful community event in his hobby. It is really difficult to comprehend.
How Your Donation Will Help
All funds raised will go directly to support Virginia who still works fulltime and will greatly help her long-term financial security and assist with many expenses that now confront her in the short term. She is the beneficiary and will receive the funds directly.
Please Give What You Can
No amount is too small and every donation will honour Peter’s legacy and will help support Virginia which we know would have been his greatest concern. If you are unable to give any money, then you can still help by sharing this page or promoting it to your family, friends colleagues and other networks.
Peter ‘Marzo’ Meagher has loyally served all parts of his community in both his professional life and voluntarily in so many areas and for so long. He has helped countless people and community groups, so selflessly over so many years and, in his family’s, darkest hour, it’s our turn to reciprocate and support them so please be generous. We also send our love to all the victims, their families and the Jewish Community at this tragic time.
Yours Sincerely
David Vea
On behalf of the Randwick Rugby Players Leadership Group

The entire Rugby community is mourning the passing of Randwick Rugby stalwart Peter Meagher as part of the Bondi terror attacks

Meagher served as the club’s first grade team manager, taking up the role in 2018.

He was a beloved member of the famous club, named WT (Bill) Outterside Club Volunteer of the Year in 2020.

Meagher’s comes from Rugby royalty, with multiple generations involved in the game of Rugby Union.

He is the grandson of legendary Wallaby Wally, who was inducted into the Wallabies Hall of Fame in 2012 and also proved an integral part of the club’s early years and identity.

“’Marzo’ as he was universally known, was a much loved figure and absolute legend in our club, with decades of voluntary involvement, he was one of the heart and soul figures of Randwick Rugby,” the club said in a statement.

“For much of the last decade Marzo has been our trusted First Grade Manager and this news has already hit our players, coaches, managers, volunteers and supporters extremely hard. Prior to that he was also a highly respected long term referee who was well known and respected in Sydney Rugby circles.

“Our deepest condolences go to his wife Virginia, his brothers Greg, David, Andrew and Paul, their extended families and mountain of friends across Randwick Rugby, NSW Police, Sydney Rugby Referees and our local community.

“We obviously extend our deepest sympathy to all the other victims, their families and loved ones and those people traumatised by this barbaric act. We also sincerely thank and are in awe of all the first responders for their bravery and professionalism in dealing with such a dangerous and challenging situation to care for those in need.

“Rest in Peace ‘Marzo’ – we all love you and will miss you greatly. We are devastated.”

“Rugby Australia, NSW Rugby Union and the Waratahs join Randwick and the entire rugby community in mourning Peter Meagher, who lost his life during Sunday’s Bondi terror attack,” a joint statement said.

“Peter was a beloved member of the Galloping Greens, dedicating countless hours as first grade team manager and a volunteer referee, and followed in the footsteps of his father Ron and grandfather Wally, a Wallabies Hall of Famer, in serving the club.

“We extend our sincere condolences to Peter’s family, friends and clubmates as well as all the victims of Sunday’s tragedy.

“We also thank our first responders, emergency services and everyday citizens for their selfless heroism in the face of terror.

“Rest In Peace, Marzo.”

William was a labourer before joining the NSW Police.

He was described as 6′ tall, 11 stone 11.5 stone in weight.  Grey eyes, brown hair and fair complexion.

He was a ‘native’ of Cargo, NSW and was single at the time – although he married on the 2 April 1919.

He was discharged from the employ of NSWP on the 31 July 1931 and died on the 3 June 1940.


 

About 4.15pm on 15 July, 1923 Constable Webb was the rider of a police motor cycle outfit in Parramatta Road, Burwood, when he was involved in a collision with a motor vehicle travelling in the opposite direction. As a result the constable suffered a compound fracture of the leg and abrasions to his head and body.

The exact cause of the accident was not determined. Due to deteriorating health caused by his injuries, the constable was discharged medically unfit in 1931. He died 17 years later from the effects of staphylococcal pneumonia.

The constable was born in 1891 and joined the New South Wales Police Force on 31 May, 1917.

At the time of his injury he was stationed at Burwood.

* Story behind any Nickname:    

 


 

Legends, a very good mate of mine and to countless others received news early in June that completely changed his life. Blake Shorrock, or as he’s more well known as, Shoz, unfortunately received news that what he thought was a hematoma in his leg was actually a form of cancer known as sarcoma. For those of you who know Shoz you would know that he would give you the shirt of his back if you were in need and would go above and beyond for someone in need. Which is why I’m asking people to kindly consider making a donation to assist Blake and his wonderful family in the cost of Blake’s radiotherapy treatment. Any donation is welcome and appreciated. Even just a simple message of support would mean just as much to Blake and his family
