Former Irish League defender Graeme Philson has recalled how he made an early impression on Kirk Hunter with a crunching 50-50 tackle during his full debut for Coleraine.
It was back in 1992 that Philson lined out for the Bannsiders at Seaview, eager to make a positive start to his fledgling football career.
And it wasn't long before the 16-year-old centre-half was offered the chance to prove his mettle, in a full-blooded tackle with Crues hard man Hunter.
