[QUOTE="Ari Gold, post: 2392978, member: 1917"] Some of it is talent that didn't get enough of a shot, but in some cases it's just unrealized talent. Players like Tim Smith and Brett Seymour aren't struggling to get a first grade NRL job next year due to lack of opportunities in their career, they just haven't made the most of those they did get. Hunt, Vidot and Mortimer are 3 you can quite rightly claim haven't really had their fair chance and I'll give you them, but you can't claim Seymour and Tim Smith as players who would form part of a quality side. Years of chances have proven they aren't up to it. And whilst you may disagree, I just don't believe a team comprisiing the likes of Heighington, Mortimer, Vidot, Moon, Hunt, Warbuton, Laffranchi, Leulia, Hohaia, Heremia, Waterhouse and Flanagan really adds much to the NRL (I've listed every player you named and everyone I could find off to the ESL - aka leaving the NRL). Frankly, most of those players are in the twilight of their careers and may still prefer to head to England. And even if they stayed, for the most part you'd just end up with Dad's Army take II (Titans being the original) [/QUOTE]
