Mark Ella is a former star rugby union player who captained the Australian Wallabies team 10 times and represented his country 25 times.
Former Wallabies coach Bob Dwyer claimed that Ella was one of the most all-round accomplished players of the game he had ever seen.
With his brothers Glen (his twin) and Gary, the Ellas were a sensation on the field and all 3 represented Australia at various times.
Mark was particularly skilled in reading the play and offloading the ball at the right moment, and then backing up to continue the attack.
