A player you thought was a diamond but ended up a rock

[MacDougall]

Michael Chee Kam
Jordan Rankin
Joel Edwards
Tim Grant

... I sense a pattern here.

Joel Edwards knows he's shit, hence he keeps hopping to the club he classes as shit, still can't get a run.

 

[Allstar Knights]

Joel Edwards was a bog average footballer from the start tbh.

Chee Kam absolutely f**ked my SuperCoach season a few years ago

Ugh, so many
Zillman was as good as any junior ive seen come through (Milford excl.), the injuries to his knee really ripped away what i think could have been a Slater like career.

Daniel Vidot could have been the best winger in the game if he wasnt such a god damn f**king idiot. He had it all physically. And none of it mentally.

The 'Welsh Wiz' (more like Welsh Fiz) Johnathan Davies.

Rocked up 1/3 way through the 1995 season with a massive reputation, scored one decent try against newy in newy from a scrum play. That was pretty much it.

Gave the club a huge spray at the airport on the way back to Pomgolia at how shit we wer as a club and that he felt lied to as our management said we would be a top 8 team in our inaugral year......... Yes we came stone motherless last.

Probably valid criticisms really..........

It's those dark years that make 2015 all that more special I guess mate.

The only thing that kept the club alive during the late 90's was the fans/crowds we were getting. Sure as hell had nothing to do with players achievements on the field during that period. It's a f$&@ing miracle we survived it to be brutally honest.

Started from the bottom now we here

Arana Taumata
Matt Duffie
Tim Smith

 

[Shaun Hewitt]

From the Warriors camp:

Obvious one is Kevin Locke.

Daniel O'Regan
Alehana Mara

To a lesser extent Pita Godinet, Tevita Latu

 

[Pete Cash]

Someone like edwards is punching above his weight in talent. He can do a job but isnt that great. I thought we got ok service from him at Canberra. We just got better players.

He is a fill in backrower, a squad filler. Dont think he was ever going to be more than that.

Zillman and vidot are two from canberra. Waddell i had hope for but players in skill position like half or hooker have such a giant step up from under 20s to firsts that i dont really expect much from young players in those spots

Jake Mullaney deserves a mention too.
Scored a million tries in U20s and carved teams up every week for 2 years.

Was praised so highly after that big run at Origin.

I thought he was ok at Penrith but never really kicked on since Origin.

Daniel Mortimer. Obviously Hayne was carrying the Eels that year with the help of others like Fui, but Mortimer came up with some great plays riding that wave of confidence. Definitely got sucked in to his hype.

Tim Smith has been mentioned but after his 2005 season it was pretty reasonable to expect him to kick on

He wasn't to bad at Souths last year, and from the brief glimpses I've seen of the Tigers games thia year he has been alright.
