Revered NRL recruiter and former first grade coach Peter Mulholland has died at the age of 68.
Mulholland's death from a rare form of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma was confirmed by the Canberra Raiders on Thursday.
He cut his teeth as a coach at St Gregory's College Campbelltown, where the likes of Mick Potter and Jason Taylor were under his tutelage.
His prowess in junior rugby league earned him a shot at first grade in the then-Australian Rugby League competition with the introduction of the Western Reds in 1995, where he lured Mark Geyer to the start-up franchise.
