Biography
A Parramatta junior, Neville Glover was named the club's Rookie of the Year in 1975.
He played in the Club's first grand final appearance in 1976, a loss which was unfairly attributed to the pass he dropped just before the tryline.
Neville rose to senior representative honours in the following seasons, playing in two Tests against the touring New Zealand side in 1978.
He also represented NSW in 1979 against Great Britain. After seven seasons in the top grade with Parramatta, Neville played out his career with Penrith.
