The NSWPRL would like to extend our condolences to the Brazel family.
Jim was a respected NSW Police officer and long term member of the SWOS.
Jim coached the TRG/Darlinghurst team to many premierships and was also a long term coach of the NSWPRL Country side.
Country Police would turn up at the Redfern Police Academy usually the day before taking on the City police team. The country boys were make welcome by Jim who coached and Rod ‘Evil’ McDonald who was the manager. Jim’s regular saying was “Stick to the basics” pronouced BAASSICS and won more of those games than the team lost.
He is a big loss to the community and NSWPRL thank Jim for his long commitment and contribution to the NSWPRL.
Great man and friend to many. RIP.
