I'd take 4 or 5 of the English team for a new Perth club.

CorrectOr James Tamou
We got Hodgson and Whitehead and struck oil on both
The rest of you can fight it out for the dregs and take your chances, personally I think those two panning out was ridiculous luck haha
Ryan Hall is one of the five best wingers in the world and Jermain McGilvary is one of the top 10.
Tomkins was the best player in the ESL, by a mile.
Wasn't even in the top 15 fullbacks in the NRL when he was here.
He's too little. The Super League backs are mostly like ARL backs from the 90's: quick, skillful, 75 to 90 kg athletes. Backs in the NRL are 90 to 100 kg now, and only the biggest Super League backs could hope to make it in the NRL.
Or James Tamou
He went to school?At least Tamou went to school in Sydney
Whitehead was always a great prospect at Catalans (working wide with Pomeroy, he was making Pomeroy look good, always a sign you're a top player!), he was one of the few Super League forwards I thought would take well to NRL (and it took him a little while to hit his straps, but not too long).

I realise your probably to young to remember, but big backs were definitely in the game in the 90s.
Sailor,McCracken, Meninga, Bowman to name a few.
Ryan Hall has always scored try's against who played against and that includes us.Tomkins was the best player in the ESL, by a mile.

Ryan Hall and Jermaine McGilvary both deserve to be in the NRL. Chris Hill and the two St Helens props -- Kyle Amor and the other bearded guy, Alex Walmsley --- would also do well in the NRL.
