Sharks who am I?

[Don Tweddle]

As seen on the NRL page...you'll figure out how it works. winner gets farkin nothing, except the joy of having the internet marvel at their trivia prowess.

Who am I?
I was born in New Zealand and toured with the NZ Maori. I also made a training squad for a European cup team. I played 2 seasons with Cronulla, before playing for another NRL team for 2 years. I never scored an NRL try. I later played in the English super league and Queensland Cup.

James Stosic?

If I am correct just do another one I cbf... Pretty sure we did this a few off seasons ago? Inferno started it I think.

 

[Don Tweddle]

Special K is right.

Older player this time:

I scored 20 tries in 13 seasons in the NRL. I played for the Sharks and three other teams, one of which is no longer an NRL team. My first Sharks captain was David Hatch and I played in the last NSWRL game to be played at Henson Park.

 

[Go Nulla]

Didn't Michael Speechley play for the Jets in their last year in the comp in 83 !

 

[Don Tweddle]

You got it Nulla

James smashed me playing touch footy. Faaark he's got a big shoulder!

These are good Don. Keep them coming. Got the first but not the second. Thought the Stosic answer was Tevita Latu at first I admit.

Another one:

I was born in Queensland and played union at school. I had two stints at the sharks before heading to England, where I played over 100 games for a super league side. I have also played professional rugby union and played a rugby league international against Jamaica.

sounds like a macdougal resume

 

[Don Tweddle]

This dude is possibly madder than any macdougalls. A hint that will give it away: I once got in trouble for installing a stripper's pole in my backyard

Ryan McGoldrick

 

[Don Tweddle]

Yep. McGoldrick actually played for the USA somehow.

 

[blacktip-reefy]

2 stints?

 

[Don Tweddle]

He went to yawnion for a year, didn't get much of a go and then came back

Early 2000s wasn't it. 2002, 2003?

Yep 2003 frenzy, think he was with the waratahs but only played a couple of times.

 

[Special K]

McGoldrick debuted in 02, went to play rah rah in 03 then came back in 04.

McGoldrick and Franze what a centre combo that could of been.

See who gets this one -

I played three seasons with the Sharks, scored 10 tries. I was also a talented surfer and competed with the likes of Midget Farrelly. I later coached in France, NZ, England and Australia. I played over 100 games for my local club and later coached them as well. I also returned to the Sharks in another capacity after my playing career.
