[QUOTE="Big Pete, post: 3557775, member: 1899"] Puletua started as an 18 year old and was clearly a prospect and one of their better players during some tough times for the club. I thought he was one of the better second rows in the competition when they made the finals in 2000. I'd count Galuvao. Comes in as a fullback/outside back utility and fails to nail down a spot at the Warriors. Goes to the Panthers and doesn't find his feet until his second season at the club. Then to prove it isn't a fluke, he goes to Souths and ends up being a massive bust, so much so they send him to the Easts Tigers when they had a brief affiliation up here. Only to end up at the Eels and Sea Eagles and he is a really solid contributor in their grand final and premiership success. Could almost argue he had the better career than Puletua despite Puletua always being highly regarded. Loved that Panthers 03 team. I'd consider Wesser, I don't think anyone saw him usurping David Peachey and challenging Darren Lockyer for the best fullback in the competition. [/QUOTE]
