Former Rugby League Players - what are they remembered for...??

[Fangs]

Haha never knew that!

ETS rugby league was another classic in the day. Pick the snow pitch and the ball would bounce like f**k

Very similar to Rugby League 1 that they put out on Xbox/PS2. 9/10 speed + acceleration. Turn around and run along the dead ball line. Worked a treat every time.

I have a copy of ETS but never played it. The floppy disc corrupted I think.

Luke Phillips - Trememdous 2000 Grand Final performance in a losing team

So true, Luke Phillips put his body on the line in the 2000 Grand Final and stopped so many tricky situations.He put his body on the line in the 2002 Grand Final also but this time came up with the win, he was one of the toughest fullbacks I have seen play.
