We've all seen NRL players on the loose in crazy situations, but what's the most boring places you've seen an NRL player?

I saw John Cartwright at Lynwood golf club a few months ago chewing on a schooner. Still a huge unit

Ran in to blocker in KL airport quite a few years ago. He looked a bit worse for wear haha

Saw Josh Addo Carr in Redfern last year crossing the road with a pizza in hand

Saw Kevin Hardwick in the toiletries aisle at woolies many years ago. Probably getting some shampoo for his locks

Saw Richard Fa'aoso ordering Oportos once at strathfield plaza.

Have also seen Radradra three times in the parra/granville area over the past year:
i) westfield shopping centre. Got asked for a photo with a fan while he was on the phone
ii) hawa charcoal chicken: sat next to him while a fan also asked for a photo as he was eating chicken
iii) walking in the streets of parra

Johnny Raper at a Resort on the Goldy sitting by the pool.

Mel Meninga visiting indigenous kids numerous times in a Brisbane hospital where I use to work. The bloke has never been my cup of tea but it's nice when they do these things without cameras/ the PR stunt.

A.Minichello- well that one wasn't so boring, but since he was 19 at the time ill put it down to immaturity/booze.

I once walked past Steve Price who was busy managing his little supermarket shop, talking to his check out girl about restocking. I easily stepped around him in the aisle. No defence whatsoever.
Used to be my nans neighbour during his first 2 or so years with the doggies.

Couple years ago, Ryan James, Preston Campbell and I think Clinton Toopi came into a store I was working at. They bought some stuff for a kids event thing they were doing
