Name a player who seemed out of place in a WT's jersey

Definitely Fingers Villasanti for me. I had a punch on with him then he signs with the Tigers. I couldn't bring myself to watch him in the side.

More recently, I find it weird seeing Anasta and Iosefa in the side.
 
i think you'll find that both Richard Villasanti and John Carlaw had played for Balmain prior to the joint venture and were inaugural Wests Tigers players, both went on to play for the Warriors in the 2002 Grand Final after being released by the club, by the way, I recall Villasanti was absolved of any blame for the missing items on that Kangaroo tour.
 
Interestingly for me, it's Pat Richards. I still can't believe he actually played for us, despite scoring the best ever Grand Final try in our colours. Can't wait til he comes back so I can actually get used to him as one of ours.

What does the fingers refer to INk?
I hope your not referring to the kangaroo tour thief because if you are you have got he wrong bloke . And if so you shouldn't be accusing a guy of something he didn't do .Show me the link , or did you hear it from a mate of your cousins uncles neighbour
 
I always thought Robbie Beckett was a strange one in a WT jumper. 10 years at the Panthers and has his rather 'forgetfull' swansong out at Leichhardt / Campbelltown. ( I don't think we were training at concord at the time).

Robbie Beckett at least did something memorable in his time at WT….absolutely smashed Robbie "Drug cheat" O'Davis. That was absolutely brilliant!
Loved seeing O'Davis' battered head on the sports news whinging that Beckett floored him on purpose....of course he did Robbie O: you were a knobhead :smiley:

Aaahhh, memories.
