The Most Hated Players of the Past 20 Years

I know there is another thread similar to this, but it tends to concentrate on current players. Time to turn back the clock a little.

In roughly order from worst to worse...

1. Michael Hancock - didn't matter who he played for, when tackled (which was quite often), he trashed around like an epileptic goldfish out of water. I'm so glad he expended all that energy for nothing.

2. Adrian Morely - cheap shot wannabe thug who set a world record - the fastest send off in an international match. Hahaha silly pommie.

3. Garry Freeman - a definite sufferer of "short man syndrome" on and off the field. Even on Foxsports he tries to talk over everyone. Trouble is he forgot to bring a 6 foot stepladder with him.

4. Craig Coleman - refer to 3 above. I had the pleasure of this wimp mouth off at the Bat and Ball Hotel near the SCG before and day nighter between the Aussie and the Poms.
Coleman: (After bumping into a guy at the bar) Do you know who I am?
Average Joe: Nah, and I don't care.
Coleman: Well I'm Craig Cole......
Average Joe: (walks away after knocking Coleman out with one punch).
Clean out!....what a laugh!

5. Anthony Mundine - other than his mediocre boxing achievements, his Rugby League record reached a zenith when he scored 24 points in a match. Trouble is the team with the 24 was Melbourne Storm. He let four tries in for what would be the weakest defensive performance by an NRL player. I felt for the Dragons that day. 60 odd points put on them from menory.

Adrian Morely?

Never f**king heard of him

The Roosters used to have a player called Adrian Morley who was a brilliant player and much loved at the Bondi club.

Most people I ever spoke to about him only hated him because he wasn't at their club. How you can pick him is beyond me?

Matthew Ridge was a filthy grubby arse - he would have been a better choice. Not many liked him.

Michael Hancock, Willie Carne, Andrew Gee, Chris Walker
I think Martin Bella was very unpopular amongst the players too, but I didn't loathe him like the others mentioned above

Sorry Lambertta. A letter reversed must give you nightmares! Next you'll be awarded with the "Captain Comprehesion" award! You must go to an exclusive girls' college in the Eastern Suburbs.

Fancy having a username after a pissweak pseudo wannabe step through!!

Try being a Ducati or Moto Guzzi you tampoonist!

MORLEY was and still is a toss wad pommie!

Word accusing Morley of being a cheap shot merchant is ridiculous. Morley was a champ on the field and a champ off it.

Stopped reading at Morley. OP is a vegetarian androtrop

Better learn some comprehension from Miss Lambertta!!

Read my initial post CAREFULLY! I said "roughly in this order".

Does that not imply to you that it is my observation, not common opinion?

Keep toning that arm so you terrorise what little with have with your wrist.

Typically, posters revert to current players, probably because their first experience and knowledge of rugby league was post 2005.

Ben Hornby, still remember how he carried on in game 2 2004 when he dropped the ball after crashing into Wingy. Just disgraceful, you do not yell at a teammate like that ever. He also said he could have stopped Slater. His face is annoying too.

I liked Morley. Hated the Roosters. Tough bastard & always had a dig, would have liked him more if he had been a Panther. But a good player is a good player, besides front rowers should play like he did.

My most hated would be Les Boyd.

Yo hippyf**kface, we already have a token grumpy oldman who thinks he's more of a rugby league fan than any of us because he's been around for longer. He's name is Loudstrat and you're a poor man's version f**k off.
