Noa Nadruku - The Binge.
28 Schooners, 6 stubbies and half a bottle of wine.

Legend has it that when there was talk of the Raiders ripping up Nadruku's contract a journo asked one of the executives at Souths (who in 1997 were struggling and had taken in a lot of troubled players) whether they'd consider approaching Nadruku..

The reply came back "Nah mate - he left half a bottle of wine..".

Andrew Frew, a real humanitarian(look him up on Google).

Jarrod Sammut - if he had the ball on the 5th in the attacking red zone, he would kick... for himself.

2 things come to mind when it comes to Shane tronc

1. Every commentator, stadium announcer and a fair few journos calling him Scott tronc

2. Seeing live all 125kg of him wattling 30m untouched to dive under the post to score against the dogs at Carrara stadium. He even pulled up and looked around about 10m out to make sure it was still play on because it just didn’t feel right

For sucking a mean coaches cock

 

[The Vaulting Violinist]

Meninga - RL has done nothing for me

Fatty - his commentary in ARL 96. Hot that like my three iron

Polly - most famous field goal miss of all time

David Hosking - 1990 NSWRL football card with mud covering his face

Tommy - cattle

Andrew or Darren Willis - kicking a field goal from 49m out at Campbelltown one Friday night in the early 90s

Gallen - pulling stitches out of someone’s face

Kevin iro - running backwards for the rams in an Adelaide game in 1997/98

Kerrod Walters - chicken dance in the same year for the same team

McGrady - 1993. Enough said

Sandow - brawling with the locals in a country town

Myles - turd in the shoe

 

[titoelcolombiano]

Former Queensland Origin halfback Ben Hunt will be remembered for the 2015 grand final incident, the 2018 state of origin incident and generally being the Mitchell Pearce of Queensland.

 

[El Diablo]

Michael De Vere - getting stapled on the sideline in Origin

 

[Fangs]

Fatty - his commentary in ARL 96. Hot that like my three iron

Brilliant game.

Just when the season was dead you could run backwards and have the opposition 13 follow you across the dead ball line and run 100m to score.

Haha never knew that!

ETS rugby league was another classic in the day. Pick the snow pitch and the ball would bounce like f**k
