Fifita, Lafranchi probably. Austin last season. Bronson Harrison had 1 good year at Canberra.
Apart from that we have had a decent record of blokes' careers never reaching too great of heights after we had finished with them.

Blair?
 
Simon Dwyer. Career cut way too short. Could have been anything in the game and we might have come close to a Grand Final win with Dwyer and Ellis in the same team.

TT on the wing was a another great loss again to injury. love it when he had ball in hand.
 
Definitely Tuiaki for mine. The guy was a beast and arguably the best, most fearful winger in the comp at his peak circa '08, '09\. You have to remember with him he got plucked out of Manly Rugby Union 3rd grade and he was only getting better and better the longer he was in the game.

Closely followed by;

Benji in his prime. What an entertainer.
Ben Galea for his old school toughness and workrate. The bloke was a footy player.
 
Watching Benji do things that were (at the time) impossible was just outrageous viewing. I remember that sharks step, step, step, step to the tryline, the outrageous no look pass. Just thrilling to watch.

The '05 team. Miss all those guys.
 
Well I could put them in eras….2000-2005 three players two marks in stimpson and O'neill also johnny 'whitelegs' Wilson. 2005-2010 five players stand out for me B Hodgson B galea S prince A laffranchi and T tuiaki. 2010-2015 four players are S Dwyer G Ellis L Fulton and out of left field M brown......
