An interview with Classic Wallaby #466 Rob Heming, conducted by Gordon Bray and produced by Theo Clark Media.

Rob Heming played 21 Tests for Australia in a seven-year international career. He was recognised as the greatest line-out jumper in the world during the period he played international rugby. He ensured the Wallabies’ possession from a set piece from which they struggled to do prior his arrival on the Test stage in 1961.

In ‘The Top 100 Wallabies’ written by Peter Jenkins, Heming was selected by a panel of seven, including five Wallabies, at number 23 and the second row partner of John Eales in the Top XV.
