[pinchy81]

There should be ET in there i reckon

 

[chaminda_00]

Simon Woolford was a solid player but nothing better. ET for him atleast.

 

[Simon]

ET made his debut in 1983, all his top years were well before 95.

 

[chaminda_00]

I think you missed BK, or did i miss him?

 

[Simon]

I think you missed BK, or did i miss him?

we did...

 

[chaminda_00]

ET made his debut in 1983, all his top years were well before 95.

Wouldn't that be the same for Carroll, Furner, Daley and Stuart?

 

[pinchy81]

Steve Renoulf maybe? Micheal Hancock, Wendell Sailor, Darren Smith and Ryan Girdler

 

[Simon]

we did...

BK in for Woolford

 

[Simon]

Wouldn't that be the same for Carroll, Furner, Daley and Stuart?

all late 80's, Furner didnt debut till 93 tbh...

 

[Simon]

Steve Renoulf maybe? Micheal Hancock, Wendell Sailor, Darren Smith and Ryan Girdler

didnt want too many from the one club, renouf just missed out...

 

[Blewy]

Wouldn't that be the same for Carroll, Furner, Daley and Stuart?

Carroll was a beast against Harragon in the mid to late 90's...

 

[chaminda_00]

Gallen, Skandalis & Cayless all solid players, but surely there are better players?

 

[BoyBrumby]

Morley....?

 

[Simon]

Gallen, Skandalis & Cayless all solid players, but surely there are better players?

we wanted a collection of both current and recent stars, Gallen will continue to grow in stature and Sharks needed an extra player.

Cayless was awesome in the early 00's, remember he was the leader of that great eels team which stuffed a number of premierships and also captained NZ, he deserves his spot.

 

[Simon]

Morley....?

i wanted him but i agreed to let it go if blewy didnt add Corey Hughes...

 

[Blewy]

Morley....?

Probably deserves a spot... Ahead of Skando

 

[Blewy]

i wanted him but i agreed to let it go if blewy didnt add Corey Hughes...

LOL

Corey "Im the greatest imposter to play in the NRL" Hughes

 

[pinchy81]

[Simon]

Gallen out Dykes in? or Nutley in?
