Thinking about this the other day. The players that played against us and admired them and thought they'd never play for us...

Heres mine...

Paul Newlove
Deryck Fox
Dave Watson
Shaun Edwards
Henry Paul
Iestyn Harris
Steve Menzies (might not have played against us)
James Lowes
Paul Medley
Adrian Morley
Danny Brough

Vainakolo, Vaikona.

Barry Seabourne, Jeff Grayshon, Nigel Stephenson, Harry Pinner, Jimmy Thompson.

On reflection I don't think Lesley ever played against us but I think Joe Vagana did in the doomed Wold Club Challenge.

Brad Mackay
Steve Menzies
Henry Paul
Willie Tonga
Matt Orford

Obviously they didn't all turn out to be good...

Dane Nielsen
Mario Fenech
Brad Meyers
Antonio Kaufusi

I never expected Graham Mackay to "retire" at Leeds only to then sign for us and win a grand final. Also from Leeds I didn't expect us to sign either Marcus Bai or Chris McKenna.

Very few in that list turned out to be contract dodging dwarves.

Matt Orford, Steve Menzies and Glenn Morrison.

Never thought I’d see prime Morley at the Bulls either.

In terms of players that played against us and not just players i thought were good like Orford or Menzies which wasn’t the question asked …I’d say Shaun Edwards, Henry Paul, Henderson Gill, Jeff Grayshon (2nd spell), Leon Pryce (2nd spell) and Adrian Morley.
