Foz to Warriors and Foz to Eels rightfully made the list, but how Foz to Bulldogs didn’t make it is beyond me.... outrageous!!
But if he had stayed at Manly from 2016 onwards, would we have won another premiership between 2011 and now?
He is mate.Adam Blair has to be there
Totally agree, Bulldogs fans would be so frustrated that he is still taking up so much of their cap on the sideline. Kind of like Choc at Parra lol. Also I completely forgot he went to the Warriors wtf!
I put this on twitter just before about Foz - I wonder what we/he would have been like if he had never left Manly? A lot said the way he plays it was inevitable for him to end up with injuries such as these, which I agree with. But if he had stayed at Manly from 2016 onwards, would we have won another premiership between 2011 and now? More importantly, if Des had never left, I wonder the same question!
Ah well, let's hope we're back on track for another 10+ years finals dynasty with a lot of success along the way!
We lost that year because we ran out of props in the final quarter -- a few forwards injured that year really cost us - Joe Galuvao, Jason King and Richie Fasao. I still remember us being pinned in our own quarter and not able to get out. Des may have made a difference, but crucial injuries probably cost us more.I think we would’ve got 2013 for sure if Des was still coach. No criticism of Tooves, but Des had the experience which would’ve given us an edge we didn’t have to beat the Chooks and Shayne Hayne.
If you mean Storm players who failed to prosper at other clubs, that's true.at least we were not guilty of buying any of them
I remember the Crushers had a UK import by the name of Saintjohn (pronounced "Singe On") Ellis.
Anyone else remember him?
I cant recall if he was good or bad, just that I'd never before (nor since) encountered that first name.
EDIT: Wow, I just googled him & he died in 2005 at age 41!
You can add Tony D'Arcy to that list of failed rugby converts. Wallaby Prop who signed with Penrith and did nothing.
