Marvin Golden was the opposite of a wasted talent. Made absolutely the most (even if that wasn't very much) of very, very limited ability.

Marcus Vassilakopoulos was definitely a wasted talent.

Many good judges rated him the best ever junior talent ever to come out of Hull, and they were largely vindicated when he was playing in a Challenge Cup Final for Leeds at just 17.

Within two or three seasons, he was warming the bench for Sheffield Eagles!

I thought the accepted definition of world class was "would walk into any side in the world".

In Paul Kings testamonial programme (think it was in that) Brian Noble GB coach at the time, stated that if he could have shown the same committment as if my memory serves me right Peacock that he would have been a GB regular. Instead he loved his local and cigs to much, shame, now i think hes at York.

Another one who did a season in London. Occasionally looked really good, most of the time didn't look interested.

Quote: McClennan "I thought the accepted definition of world class was "would walk into any side in the world".'"


Of course not. That would mean that Darrell Goulding isn't world class, and we all know he is because he's played for England, which is apparently the definition.

Quote: Noel Cleal "www.smh.com.au/articles/2004/01/24/1074732654917.html?from

One of the most amazing stories ever. Aside from what O'Neill did the article contains the following from the business partner of the boy's dad;

[iA stupid act like that could have had fatal consequences because that suit is highly flammable[/i

[iThe suit is very difficult to get into and is impossible to get out of without any assistance[/i

[iThe suit is worn by my business partner's 13-year-old son[/i

WTF! Get that kid into care now.

Ha ha, another London old boy. He was our leading try-scorer and a pretty decent player. Then Wigan waded in with the cheque book to snap him up and he turned rubbish.

Tim Hartley, looked like a belter when he broke onto the scene at Salford, left went to London and didn't make the grade, moved to Leigh in the end but sadly had his career ended by injury.
