NRL Cinderella Men - Jordan Rapana?

[Rhino_NQ]

from what ive read some of the work rapana can do in the gym for someone his size and nothing short of astonishing. If I was going to guess he probably wasn't overly commited to this at the start of his career compared to now with the line breaks and tackle busts next to his name to show for it.

Rapana's the best winger in the world right now, and will eventually go down as one of the all time greatest.

Is there anyone in your side you don't rate as the best in position?

Sure, Clay Priest.

Paul McGregor didn't play 1st grade till around mid twenties from memory, went on to play SOO and for Australia

Jeremy Smith would be another one I can think of

I get the point you're trying to make
But this was probably the wrong post it make it on. Rapana is legitimately the best winger in the game right now haha

Joe Galuvao

Fullback for the Warriors, pops up a couple years later as a second rower to win a premiership with the Panthers.

After changing clubs a couple of times he was basically put out to pasture until Manly swooped in. Found some vintage form and won another premiership with Manly.

He did a stint with south didnt he?

Moggy didn't make firsts until he was 25. In 2006 he was a surprise QLD pick and went on to dominate the sauce spurter and help kickstart QLDs origin dominance.

just behind vunivalu

 

[nick87]

Wot?

According to Fox Sports stat lab:

Rapana has more tries, try assists, runs, metres, line breaks than Vunivalu, more than double his tackle breaks, almost double his offloads, more tackles and less mistackles, less penalties, less try causes, less line break causes

The only place where Vunivalu wins is 16 errors to Rapanas 18. It's not even f**king close

Nofoaluma is the only one in the conversation (Mansour too but he hasn't played this year), but his defence is brutally bad.

Jordy Raps is pretty clearly the best winger in the game right now

 

[Nice Beaver]

He did a stint with south didnt he?

Yep.

Rusty Crowe told him to give up footy and become a preacher.

Can pick and retain talent old Gladiator.

David Simmons is worth a mention. A walking punchline early on, but had a cracking final few years. A very intelligent player in the end. Always knew where to be in attack and defence.

Great bloodlines too giving us another #1 draft pick in the nba

He'd have to play Centre in Melbourne . . . I wish

Some say that Rapana was just bumming around for a few years unable to crack it. I thought he was doing his Morman mission??

Did his mission then had a crack at yawnion. What a waste he would of been in that game.
