Guys as part of my post footballing career dabble into literature I need a list of Dubious Campaigners. I am looking at compiling a book or perhaps a tv series down the track of the 100 most dubious campaigners to play first grade rugby league between 1995-2015.
When I played many opposition players used to niggle me and bait me, with words to the affect of "your a dubious campaigner". However what they didn't see was I was a player full of starch. These 2 definitions are often confused, and this is a huge mistake. All teams require players with starch. I only average 60 odd yards a game, and lacked speed, size and skill. However I made up with great talk from marker. I also was prominent at rallying the troops behind the goal line, once defused a dangerous 3rd kick. I ran immaculate decoy lines and had a copybook tackle technique. I did all the little things the experts didn't see. Thats why I played years at the top.
Dubious campaigners requires a very definitive definition. Sometimes they fly under the radar as "journeyman". This definition I get very upset about. Journeyman are people that travel through rough terrain, deserts, looking for their next feed, desperate to survive. Journeyman are not footballers, that play at 4 NRL clubs, they are more likely dubious campaigners. DC are...
* Players without ability and lacking in starch that survive in the NRL
* They never get injured, or f they do they recover quicker then expected
* They that often make themselves "coaches pet"
* They often put out the witches hats at training or are first in to celebrate a try
* They manage to alienate close to half of their own fan base by dubious performances
* They remain in the team despite injuries and gun juniors waiting in the wings
* They may fly under the radar and survive the scrap heap by moving and tricking 4 or 5 nrl clubs
* they may have come into contact with Tim Sheens, Royce Simmonds or Matt Elliott at some point in their career
An example of a very dubious campaigner would be Daniel Fitzhenry. I have him as number 1 at this stage.
• He managed to play over 100 first grade games despite lacking any football ability.
• 90% of WT fans hated him
• Tim Sheens lauded him at every opportunity
• He would very rarely get injured, once he broke down and he was back in 2 weeks to every WTs fans horror. At this stage I have him as number 1 dubious
Cheers guys any help would be appreciated
