Congratulations Jos ‘Poison’ Op ’t Hoog on g Congratulations Jos ‘Poison’ Op ’t Hoog on game 150 🔥🙌
⠀
Coming down to the club in 2011, Jos has left an indelible impact on SMS.
⠀
From the unofficially named ‘Op ’t Hoog Wing’, to his gentleman charm off the field - Jos is a well respected and influential Saint.
⠀
How he is described by his peers:
⠀
“The only man, past, present, or future from the footy club, whom I would allow to take my daughter out.
⠀
Harder than a cat’s head but a thorough gentleman - a credit to his mum and dad”
⠀
“Unassuming, selfless and always with a ‘team first’ mentality, he often hasn’t received the awards or plaudits of other players.
⠀
In saying that, he is one of the first picked because you always know what you’re going to get- courage and absolute commitment.”
⠀
Congratulations Jos on your milestone. Can't wait to run out beside you today - go well mate!
⠀
