Biography

Simons grew up in the North Shore of Sydney and started his first-grade career with North Sydney, where his brother Jeff Simons played in the late 1970s.[3]

A winger, Simons debuted for North Sydney in the 1982 NSWRL season and featured in every game from the second round onwards, including two finals. He amassed a total of 105 first-grade appearances while at North Sydney and was the club's top try scorer with 11 tries in 1988, his final season.
