One of the most successful captains in premiership history, leading St George to the 1977 title and Parramatta to victory in 1981–83. A St George junior, Edge was on the bench for third grade on Grand Final day in 1971, captain of Saints’ thirds that won the premiership in 1972, and a member of the reserves that lost the Grand Final to Manly in 1973. Made his first-grade debut in 1973 but didn’t establish himself in the side until 1975, when he played in the Grand Final. Took over the first-grade captaincy in 1976, after Graeme Langlands retired and Billy Smith was injured, and led the team to the premiership in 1977, his first full year in charge. Lost his place to Jack Jeffries in 1978 and John Dowling in 1979, but fought back to play in the 1979 Grand Final before signing with Parramatta. Was NSW hooker in the inaugural State of Origin game in 1980

Played a total of 103 games for St George
