2006 NRL debutants

[choc_soldier]

I came across the idea of posting any NRL debutants for the 2006 season, as there are quite a number that start their careers every season, and as a way of "introducing" them to the general rugby league follower (i.e., posters here on LU). There would be quite a number every season.

Anyway, I'll start off here...

Didn't they say he played for Wests? Or was that in reserve grade?

 

[TV Ted Ellery]

There has to be a few. Shane Perry from the Broncos would be one.

Didn't he start his career with the Magpies way back in 99'? Or am I thinking of someone else...

I'd be dead guessing mate, but he has been in QLD in the QLD Cup for a while. Can't remember him playing for Wests although I could easily be wrong.

 

[Ghoulies]

You are. Perry has played FG for both Wests and Canterbury.

 

[Mr Saab]

Perry has played NRL before. 8 games for the magpies in 1999
