Dubious Campaigners

[Brutus]

Clint Newton is number 1.

I raise you Mitch Newton

 

[Brutus]

Players that were picked purely for their goal kicking being Ron Giteau, Ross Conlon, Ian Herron, Jason Taylor, Mike Eden, Daryl Halligan etc.

Mike Eden won a Rothmans Medal.

Purely on his ability to suck up to the refs.

 

[Paullyboy]

No mention of Fulivai yet?
Actually he was mainly an Origin back up.

The Tongan prince played far too many games to be considered just an origin backup. Unfortunately.

Jason Bulgarelli fits this category perfectly by the way.

 

[hineyrulz]

The one and only Dalla's Weston.

 

[Horrie Is God]

Dancin' Dallas Hood..

 

[Rhino_NQ]

Ashley graham

Check out the 'Mediocre Rugby League players of the 90s and 2000s' facebook page. Good for a laugh in CDF's down periods

Best thing is when the actual player chimes in to the discussion about them :lol:

 

[Rhino_NQ]

just checked the page, that's gold

bit harsh on buttigeig though, origin prop that got cut short in his prime with a chronic quad problem that from the sounds of it was made out of Teflon

todd polglase and leon bott deserve mentions though

 

[Sir Biffo]

Scott Fulton/Jarrad Anderson. Coaches favourites for obvious reasons. Maximum dubiousness, would never play a first grade game if daddy didn't coach.

 

[Rhino_NQ]

mark shipway, in the joel Edwards mould of being able to hit like a hammer but being rubbish at everything else

 

[Ghoulies]

Scott Anderson was as dubious as they come.

 

[Rhino_NQ]

clifford manua

just loved the last name

 

[Timbo]

Josh McCrone is this category's messiah.

 

[Packy]

Every 2nd gen Hughes brother.

I'm sure the Dubious Campaigner serves a purpose which scholars of the game have yet to discover. They are the equivalent of male nipples or appendix. No one knows what function they serve but it's just reassuring to know they are there.

 

[POPEYE]

I'm positive this thread was orchestrated for exhibiting the most recent obvious candidate . . . Robert Lui

If the Cowboys are the equivalent of the White Star Line and Thurston it's Titanic, Lui is the iceberg

 

[Brutus]

King of dubiousness - Brad Mackay

I'll never know why.

 

[hineyrulz]

Tolsen Tollet.

 

[God-King Dean]

First thought was Anasta.

 

[Brutus]

Every 2nd gen Hughes brother.

We have a winner!!!
