Signings That Were Never Right

[soc123_au]

IIRC, didn't he leave Penrith to go to Souths because he couldn't get regular time in first grade?

Don't really remember tbh, we had a pretty handy pack back then, so probably.

Don't remember that one, just a hero in the mintie jersey.

He never played for the St George Dragons. He played solely for Souths when he came down from Maitland (he played for Newcastle Norths in 1979) for the 1980 NSWRL season and played for Souths until the end of the 1984 season.

There was a couple of odd ones with Chris Walker at the eels that year. Carl Webb and Chris Hicks were 2 of them

Yeah that's right!! They went out and bought a lot of really old guys. I think that's had been in England for a few years.

It really is blasphemous to suggest he played for the Dragons. He was a Rabbitoh from start to finish of his first grade career

Ooh cool thread.

Shaun Berrigan at the Raiders was always a strange one. Sisa Waqa, Ryan James and Dave Taylor too. And Nathan Barnes and Craig Dimond.

Rod Maybon anywhere but Souths.
David Kidwell at Souths.
Kerrod Walters at Adelaide.
Noel Goldthorpe at Hunter.
Simon Woolford at St George.
Jack Wighton at Souths.
Phil Graham at the Roosters.
Steve Walters at Newcastle

 

[Scott]

Jody Rudd at North Sydney.

Kerrod played well for Adelaide if I remember correctly

Jody Rudd at North Sydney.

All the Illawarra crew like Rodwell, piccinelli, schifilliti moving elsewhere

Adam Blair anywhere he couldn't ride the coat tails of a great side and a great coach. Made his name at the Storm, was shit house at the Tigers, was OK at the Broncos (although sucked when the Origin guys were out) then mud at the Warriors, too.

Would have been great in the back of an Olympic bobsled with 3 superstars in front of him, but rubbish on a go kart by himself

I still remember him captaining NZ and making 2 runs for 9ms in 70 mins in their QF loss to Fiji in the 2017 RLWC

Seen a few photos of Cliff Lyons playing for Norths which is just weird

This one would have been a sight:

Renouf: My untold Tigers tale - I nearly joined Benji in 2005

In 2005 I was close to joining the Wests Tigers and it was the appeal of playing alongside Benji Marshall that had me keen for one last challenge in the big time.
