Biggest waste of talent ever

[RedAndWhiteThommo]

Matt Mundine
Andrew Walker
Owen Craigie

 

[Evil Borad]

Karlos Filiga

 

[bartman]

Tim Smith as well, had almost forgotten about him.

 

[Lego_Man]

Idris. Unless they turn him into a bench back rower.

Bit early to make that call.

Sonny Fai

Yeah

 

[Joker's Wild]

Brett Firman IMO. When the Dragons let him go I thought he'd really make an impact at another club but for whatever reason that just never happened. What's he doing now?

Was playing for Helensburgh last I heard

Shannon Walker was talked up to be the next big thing for the Titans but died fair in the arse.

 

[carcharias]

mat johns

Only bloke worth watching on any of those vossy plagued shows

 

[God-King Dean]

Lindsay Lohan.

Use to be so hot in Mean Girls with those massive ( . )( . )s, but then she replaced food with drugs, & she's never been the same since.

 

[bartman]

Bit early to make that call.

Wasn't the preliminary final enough proof?

 

[Y2Eel]

Anyone who has played for Dragonsawarra :sarcasm:

 

[GC_Gladiator]

Obviously Craigie is one of the main ones that springs to mind.

At the moment, although they have time to change the ways I'd say.

1. Arana Taumata
2. Setimata Sa
3. Richie Williams

I thought Richie Williams was in for a huge ride when i first saw him play for saints but has since dropped off the map.

 

[The Mighty Panther]

David Penna from the Eels. He was really looking the goods until the shocking neck injury he suffered. I rated him highly

 

[Doug2234]

SBW
Adam Ritson

 

[Ron Jeremy]

ryan leaf

 

[1 Eyed TEZZA]

Masada Iosefa from Penrith. Good talent, hasnt got his head right. Ali Lauititi is another.

I hear that Greg Alexander never reached his potiential.

SBW wins hands down. Sonny Fai close behind. In 07, Sonny Fai tore the Junion Kangaroos a new one. Absolutly sucks he is gone. Poor bugger.

Martin Lang

Was one of the most gifted ball players ever but simply turned into a workhorse by his dad such a waste of talent.

 

[The Colonel]

David Woods - Eels centre. Was as good as Renouf on his day. Only problem this bloke could and actually did injure himself taking a shower...... never saw the best of what he could do.

Paul Mares - leaving Parramatta and his subsequent neck injury curtailed what was going to be a great career.

Adam Ritson has already been mentioned but he could have been almost anything.

Mark Geyer - was easily one of the most destructive players in the game until Benny Alexander dived and his career freefalled.

 

[Eelementary]

Justin Tsoulos - he was a big boy with a good offload whom I believe played a few good games for us. He suffered a few injuries, went to Canterbury (I think?) and has since retired. Had so much potential - if he found aggression in his game, he could have been anything.

 

[Tom Ace]

Sa.

 

[Hanscholo]

Josh Perry. Despite what Manly fans would say, has never looked like reaching his potential. As a reserve grade knights player this bloke was going to be as good if not better than Glenn Lazarus and it never eventuated.

Darren Albert. Easily the fastest player i have ever seen play league, could run down oppositions backs with a 20m head start, just had remarkable speed but was never able to employ it to beat players, a hugely frustrating career imo.

Jason Ryles. Has the skill and physical attributes to be a wonderful footballer. Yet, time and again his lack of concentration let him down, his woeful discipline was always at the forefront of his game either in attack or defence. A great disappointment not to see this guy mature into a great front rower.

 

[Vic Mackey]

3. Richie Williams

I thought Richie Williams was in for a huge ride when i first saw him play for saints but has since dropped off the map.

whatever happened to him? is he playing any form of the game?

craig field for mine. on his day could be the best half in the game. had all the talent in the world but you could tell his head was never quiet right.
