Walter Slockie was a very talented indigenous rugby league player from Murwillumbah, New South Wales. He featured in many of the Queensland All Black teams of this period, often playing with another St. George Dragons player, Walter Mussing. He made a brief appearance in the NSWRFL competition in Sydney with the St. George Dragons for one season in 1925, but returned north to Queensland to continue his career for many more years. [1]
