Gary Mannion– Ned was a great bloke. I used to drive two hours to get him to check my dogs in the 70’s. One day I said to him I had to learn to do it myself. He answered, son get a book and when you come here write down everything I tell you. I didn’t get the book, but I listened to everything he said and now, I can check my own dogs, a huge thankyou to him. He was patient and answered all my questions in simple easy to understand way, even the dumb ones.
Dennis Huxley– No doubt a legend. He convinced me of his genius the day I took a dog to him for a general checkover. After a thorough check he declared words to the effect “there is nothing wrong with this dog, he should be flying.” In fact the dog had trialled over the 457m at Geelong and beat a last start Olympic Park winner by a conservative 10 lengths in near record time.
John Reid – My greatest memory of him was,walking to his kennels,I said hello Mr Bryant,I had not seen him for almost 20 yrs,his answer was your John aren’t you.it’s time you called me Ned like all your cheeky younger brothers do.
Kel Greenough – Everyone loved Ned. Always had a fast dog
