		Quite possibly Tasmania's all-time favourite cricketing son, David Boon was a pugnacious right handed batsman who served his state and country with enormous distinction.
		Predominantly in the number three position, the diminutive Boon's durability was a vital ingredient in Australia's resurgence as a cricketing power in the late 1980s and early 1990s.
		His courage was often at the core of Australian performances and it was common to see his belligerent square cutting, driving and pulling upsetting the rhythm of even the finest of bowlers.

	David Boon: Australian Legend: Beebo
		The most talked about statistic attributed to an Australian sportsman is David Boon’s 52—that is, cans on the flight to London ahead of the 1989 Ashes series.
		Jones said that he decided to pull the pin by the time the plane left Singapore, but Boon was settling into a steady rhythm, having just peeled the top off can No. 23 (not including the three he had consumed at Sydney airport).
		Having emerged unscathed, Boon next attended a sponsor’s cocktail party, where he had another three pints, and then “did not wake up for 36 hours and missed two training sessions.” Being Boon’s roommate, Jones was informed by Simpson that “when David waked up he should come and have a quiet chat with me.”
