Playing career

Born in Sydney, New South Wales, Abercrombie originally signed to the Cronulla-Sutherland club in the mid-sixties as a quick and agile wing. Making his debut in the 1967 season it took him a year to cement himself as a regular first grader playing at fullback as opposed to being on the wings.[2]

gollark: The issues I think are most problematic are just companies being able to influence governance, and I'm not really sure what to do about that. Perhaps just have strong norms about having the government not do much.
gollark: You'd need a way to somehow be able to have some of the profit from new fundamental stuff go back to its original investors.
gollark: Probably some kind of long-term research investment things?
gollark: I think with better coordinating/financial structures in place we could probably have better encouragement to do fundamental stuff.
gollark: And the government funding means we still get that, so it seems fine.
