Joe Watson

The late Joe 'Jinky' Watson arrived in Australia from his native Scotland in the pre-NSL era to play for Hakoah.

During his 14 seasons with Hakoah (later renamed Sydney City), he won four NSL championships.

He ultimately ended his top flight career with APIA Leichhardt at the age of 36.

A mazy dribbler with clever short-passing game, he thrived in an era of brutal physicality despite his slight frame.

Stronger in possession than he had a right to be, 'Jinky' was the perfect linkman during the 1985 World Cup campaign, when he enjoyed his career highlight - returning to Glasgow to play against Scotland. T

Tragically, Watson passed away on 30 September 2000 at the age of 48
