Dave Cotton Jnr, and Colin Standing who signed from Wigan, played half a game and was never seen again (1970 I believe).

The vast majority of the signings made by Steve Anderson (now in obscurity) in 2002, Tommy O'Reilly springs to mind straightaway.

I see Pat Poasa gets a mention - had one of the best handoffs I have seen in a long time.
Anyone know what happened to him?

He moved to Inida and became quite a big name playing "monsters/villains/heavies" in Bollywood films. Probably made more money than any of his team-mates ever did. I believe he now runs a South Sea Island themed restauraunt in Mumbai. |

Mark Thomas, obscure? 
Give over, the guy changed the 1990 CC Semi Final when he came on, guiding us to our last Wembley appearance and he scored the late try when we won our last trophy in 1991.
Obscure ,behave  |

Hear hear. Half of our pack now can only dream of having the handling skills that Thomas had.

Mark Thomas sent out that great pass to see us through against oldham in the semi final at wigan. He threw a few out like that during that particular season.

Agreed, as I posted. Can only assume 80-90% on here didnt watch us then. |

Got to agree about Mark Thomas, seriously underrated, superb handling skills, definately not a man from obscurity. Am I right in thinking that injuries finished him?

The first ones in line for that pie-in-the-sky
And we're always the last when the cream is shared out

Alan 'Action' Rathbone - obscure? Could do with a bit of that in our pack now if you ask me. Plenty more obscure players than him. |
