Nah mate - even better - whenever it pisses down my young fella wears it when we play muddy footy against each other in the back yard.

Not eligible based on the criteria in the article.
– No representing at senior level: internationals, State of Origin, Prime Ministers XIII, City vs. Country or All Stars.
– Current players are excluded.
– Players are only eligible for the club they played the most first grade games for.
As per previous discussion around Preston Campbell...
Tolman wouldn't even make it on that criteria, since he only played 42 games for the Sharks.
Oh thanks mate. Didn’t read back to the first page.
Craig Dimond without a doubt. My favourite shark growing up. Played a shitty city seconds game but that’s it. There were some great packs of forwards back then who got the rep jerseys but I never saw anyone get the better of Dimond.

Was a good little player - injuries the problem .
Is Barry still on the nose around here for his over zealous book keeping analysis ?
I remember the little guy in Jersey 33 scoring 4 or 5 tries in a match at Endeavour once. Lower grade game I think

Yep it was, I remember that as well.

Maybe, but if Lang not there turning him back for sing to catch , probably scored under the posts. Lang had been a Centre and had speed . Probably suffered a bit from his dad not wanting to look like nepotism in bringing him through. All speculation of course , But was great player and Underated IMHO. Just wondering on timeline thing if Craig Greenhill going high on Chief had anything to do with chief going high on Lang who was held up by two already who Chief had to jump over to hit him in the head. Was in a regular season game . I heard it on radio , The worst biased commentaries Ive ever heard excusing chief for Blatant headhunting.

Barry Andrews was an early favourite of mine & later on Mitch Healy

Certainly agree Steve Edmonds is in the discussion but whilst my recollection of Greg Cox is less clear not sure he qualifies for list anyway as I think majority of his career was with other clubs

Both good players for sure ..
Random question but I know Jonathon Docking played a couple of games for NSW but just curious as to why did the bloke retire at 28? I never seen him play but from what I’ve been told the bloke was an absolute weapon?

Terrific player for his size - full of heart and very elusive .
I think his slight frame caught up with him and lost a little bit of pace too perhaps .
I sat next to him for a Sharks / Magpies semi in the mid nineties at Parra Stadium and you would not meet a nicer and more humble bloke …
