Jim Cody

Cody played junior rugby league for South Strathfield and then the Enfield Federals before being signed by Western Suburbs.

Cody made his first grade debut for Wests against Newtown in 1962 at Henson Park. In the same year, Cody played in the 1962 NSWRL grand final against St George. During the first half, Cody knocked out St George player Norm Provan with a heavy tackle. In the second half, Saints player Billy Wilson who at half time declared he wanted to get even with Cody, hit the player with a high tackle and was sent off early in the second half. Despite being a man down, St George held on to win the premiership 9-6. The following year, Cody was left out of the 1963 grand final squad which played and lost to St George again, this would be the last grand final Western Suburbs would play in before exiting the competition in 1999. Cody stayed loyal to Wests over the next nine seasons and retired at the end of 1973.[2][3]
