Best PNG player all time?

[Walter sobchak]

Ngamu
or
Segayaru.

I say Segarayo.

Who’s Ngamu?

 

[deluded pom?]

Who’s Ngamu?

Gene Ngamu is the only one I can think of but he’s a Kiwi.

 

[deluded pom?]

Stanley Gene actually got signed to keep John Okul company.

From memory Okul broke down with a bad injury and never kicked on.

John Okul ended up playing for an amateur team in Hull. Amateur in name only because they are well known for paying their players.

[Coastbloke]

Whoever moved the thread, thank you. At least it started to get some sensible mature posts that actually addressed the thread title..

 

[titoelcolombiano]

Adrian Lam easily

Exactly. ex warrior, giant and sea eagles player.

 

[roughyedspud]

Stanley gene all day long...he's still on 29 you know....

 

[deal.with.it]

John Wilshere, Stanley Gene, Marcus Bai, Adrian Lam.

Nene, Olam, Segeyaro, Martin could be THAT good. Time will tell.

What happened to Stargroth Armean (spelling)? Was scoring a lot of tries. And who was the hunters fullback in year 1 who joined london from memory.

Whats a packet of cigarettes worth?

Stargroth came out of retirement to sign for Barrow Raiders for 2019.

Israel Eliab was dropped from the Hunters prior to 2018 ISC season and hasnt surfaced since. He was a disappointment. No preseason work and was overweight when he turned up for the London Broncos. Wasnt the same player thereafter. Hope he comes back focused. He is capable of winning games on his own (so to speak).

.

Stargroth Amean quit the Hunters about 6 rounds into the season this year to finish his University Studies.

He and Hooker Wartovo Puara jnr are have joined Barrow Raiders in Championship for 2019.

The one who joined London in 2016 was the Hunters inaugural Captain Israel Eliab.

He returned to the Hunters in 2017 and retired after the Hunters premiership win last year.

 

[Force]

Adrian Lam would be my pick.

 

[deluded pom?]

Maybe we should rephrase the question. Who is the best ever player produced by PNG? Lam was obviously a product of the Australian system as is Segayaro.

A few names of PNG Players I grew up watching and would be in my PNG Hall of Fame.

From the 80''s
1. Lauta Atoi - Centre
2. Daeri Kovae-Centre/Fullback
3. Arebo Taumaku- Lock

From 90''s
1. Akuila Emil - Halfback
2. Tuksy Karu - Standoff
3. Tuiyo Evei- Prop
4. Philip Boge - Fullback
5. Adrian Lam - Half
6. Stanley Gene - Hooker
7. Marcus Bai- wing
8. John Okul - Centre

No Arnold Krewanty or Sandy Campbell for the 80s?

 

[kiwileaguefan]

Marcus Bai put PNG on the map for me...he opened the door for PNG players to the NRL

 

[Walter sobchak]

For me the greatest kumul was Adrian lam closely followed by Marcus bai.

Was former raiders prop David westley born in PNG or in Australia to PNG parents?

 

[deluded pom?]

Bal Numapo? Tuksi Karu?

 

[The Partisan]

Bal Numapo? Tuksi Karu?

Oh ....Just beat me to it DP !

Bal Numapo is my offering as well. Consistent international player mid 80's and played one game in the top grade for Canterbury Bankstown late 80's.

 

[roughyedspud]

Anyone remember TOM O'REILLY ?

 

[deluded pom?]

Anyone remember TOM O'REILLY ?

Certainly do ‘spud. Didn’t he play at the ‘sheddings?
