Been thinking about this over the last couple of days

I can't go past Andrew Ettinghausen. First grade player at 17, first player to play 300 games for 1 club, 27 Origin games, 25 test matches, 165 tries for Cronulla, 21 tries at Orgin/Test level, possessed everything as a player.

Any other suggestions?

Mat Rogers as well.

I'm surprised you didn't say Jarryd Hayne, Sharkman.
 
Re: Best player never to win a premiersjip

He is still playing, I count retired players. Hayne could still win one.

Don't think it's ever been done before, the premiersjip is almost impossible to win.

If anyone could do it though, it would be Minto.
 
Mark Coyne must consider himself quite unlucky. Played in 3 GFs in 5 years and couldn't win one.
 
Nathan Hindmarsh springs to mind. Busted his ass at the eels for all those years without getting one when there have been a lot lesser players to get one.
 
I always thought Mario Fenech was unlucky not to win one, especially for his years at the Bears. He was an absolute beast in those days. Thoroughly enjoyed watching him play

Yeah, have to feel for some of those Tigers legends.
 
If only Warren Ryan kept Blocker and Sironen on
