He first attracted attention playing in the Wellington College First XV. Sadler played club rugby for the Wellington College Old Boys and made a Wellington representative side in his first season. He was picked for the All Blacks 1935-36 squad playing 15 games including 3 internationals on tour in the British Isles and Canada.〔''The Dominion Post'' "Ex-All Black, wife a team for 60 years" 5/2/2001 via Ebbsco's Australia New-Zealand Reference Centre〕 He played in both tests in the Bledisloe Cup against the Wallabies in 1936. Unfortunately, he damaged a nerve in his knee early in 1937 to such an extent that he never played rugby again.〔 Sadler was a small player known by the British press as "the pocket battleship" for his strength.〔 He was also a skilled ball player with good leg speed.〔 Sadler married his wife Noeleen in 1941. They lived for much of their lives in Paraparaumu Beach.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Joey Sadler」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
