I'm hoping it's true because I think this is what souths are missing, we have a pretty decent squad but we lack that one key mongral..

On the other side of the scale...

Wing played for Souths before he joined the Roosters and went back. MacDougal had 10 years or so in Newcastle in between leaving the Roosters and joining Souths. Did Joe Williams even play first grade for the Roosters? If not then we can throw in Braith Anasta as a counter attack. Logan had a bit of a break in the UK, as did Kidwell and Crocker at Melbourne. Never heard of that Skinnon bloke.

Souths do alright, or their pack does better than ours anyway :lol:.

Crocker will just add to that, wish we signed him for the year.

Only did it as a wondering thing mate, had to take all I could get. :lol:
But Joe never played firsts, now that I think of it.
I only did former Roosters who joined Souths, otherwise 13 is impossible without going to pre-2000. :lol:

Skinnon, mate he played a tiny bit of first grade for both clubs if I remember. Could be wrong with that one too.

Haha you're right mate. If I drew up a list of former Eels who've joined any other NRL club since 2000 I could probably name 3 or 4 first grade sides. We've got no specialist centres but 5 or 6 specialist centres we once had but are running around for other clubs. Very frustrating but what can ya do.

Worth a shot though, it's something interesting to always see. Heck, waiting for someone to say let's see any former Bulldogs who joined the Roosters after Kouparitsas signed. :lol:

But Parra, the likes of Drew and all, worth a shot. :D

Well when it comes to outside backs we can start with

Wade McKinnon, Brett Hodgson, Clinton Schifcofske, John Williams, David Williams, Jamie Lyon, Brett Delaney, Luke O'Dwyer, Adam Mogg, Brett Anderson, Willie Tonga, Ash Graham, Tony Williams, Scott Donald and that's on the top of my head. Wouldn't mind to swap a couple of them for a couple of our currently overpaid mob haha.

Haha, forgot about most of them. I posted something up on the first page, not a bad looking side there, probably would go within the cap too haha.

I move that our First Grade squad would kick Parra's ass. I didn't include Fitzgibbon because he left at the end of 1999:

1. Josh MORRIS
2. Nathan BLACKLOCK
3. Mark GASNIER
4. Jamie AINSCOUGH
5. Amos ROBERTS
6. Trent BARRETT
7. Rangi CHASE
8. Luke BAILEY
9. Michael ENNIS
10. Craig SMITH
11. Lance THOMPSON
12. Wayne BARTRIM
13. Chris HOUSTON

14. Jason RYLES
15. Brent KITE
16. Brett WHITE
17. Lagi SETU

Even our Reserve Grade team would go OK:

1. Clint GREENSHIELDS
2. Colin BEST
3. Darryl MILLARD
4. Keith LULIA
5. Wes NAIQAMA
6. Daniel HOLDSWORTH
7. Lincoln WITHERS
8. Michael HENDERSON
9. Mark RIDDELL
10. Ben ROSS
11. Ashton SIMS
12. Justin SMITH
13. Wycliff PALU

14. Bryan NORRIE
15. Danny WICKS
16. Willie MANU
17. Aaron GORRELL

Players including Craig Stapleton, Reece Simmonds, Lee Hookey, Ryan Tandy, Nathan Tutt, Ben Rogers, Henry Perenara, Brett Firman, John Wilshere, Chris Nero, Nick Youngquest, Ian Donnelly, Corey Payne, Lee Te Maari, Brett Kelly, Josh Lewis, Luke MacDougall, Adam Peek .. and others on top of that list of 18 couldn't crack the reserves ..

A number of these blokes, who couldn't even make the Dragons "Reserve grade" squad, are still playing first grade currently.

I may have even left out a couple of players .. Matty Head I didn't include, because he's back at the club.
