Players who are nigh on impossible to hate (you guys always find a a way)

Not sure what that is about?

Always loved Hindy.

He's got his panties in a bunch because I think Hindmarsh is nothing but an overrated thug who gets away with the sort of shit on the field that, were it anyone else, they would be spending more than a few weeks on the sidelines.

Case in point, his high shot on TLL a few weeks back that went completely uncommented on, despite it being a swinging arm across the nose.

And watch how many times he drops the elbow or forearm into the tackled players head, even if he has to flop on late to do it. You'll be surprised at just how grubby he is. He's probably the biggest thug in the NRL, he just happens to be a protected species for some reason.

Yes!! He along with Mark O'Neill, both champion blokes.

Add Gareth Ellis in too.


And Skando to boot. Ben Galea too!

Taking off the Tigers vision for a second, Toovey was one who (despite the misfortune to play for Manly) always impressed with his guile.

I'd add Luke Bailey and Nathan Blacklock.

Skeepe in fine form as usual, seeing things noone else can.

Add another vote for Hey Presto. Criminal that he never got selected for NSW (must be something about Tingha - perhaps the Blues selectors think it's in Queensland like Bowraville?).

There aren't many players that Ilike tbh.

I have met alot of them.

There's only 5 I can think of that truly came across as quality people that will have all the time in the world for you.

P. Campbell
P.Gallen
S. Menzies
G. Alexander
D. Peachey

Only ones.

Granted I think that Hindy would prob be on that list.

I hate Petro though, he has managed to grub his way though games all career and never seem to get nabbed. Rate his effort but he's a grub. In person too, didn't want to speak to anyone. panthers and sharks fan alike.

Apart from the already aforementioned Hindy, Menzies, etc., I'd add:

Aku Uate, don't know if it's possible to hate him.

JT. Used to hate him deluxe, but his laugh is infectious.

Also Luke Bailey, Wes Naiqama and Jason Nightingale.

Serial whinger who's involved in one of the unintentionally hilarious moments in Origin. Respect, but certainly hated him at times.
