Craig Teitzel - The size of Hercules, the power of a daisy.

| Can we really put Matty Russell on this list when the OP asked for players with the "biggest reputation flop", did anyone think we'd signed Billy Slater?

I thought the same.
He was a £0 signing and was playing lower grade Aussie rugby.
However he can keep his shirt until someone has a more apt fill as technically we signed him from ourselves and gave him a bigger fat deal to which he flopped.

Actually for quite a while he performed better than expected (cat duly released in pigeon coop).

I'd agree, up and till that clattering at Widnes tempered with it generally being based on the premise of a low expectation, which I thought was the opposite of the general idea of this thread rather 'just' slagging off the usual suspects?
Do I want him back in our current team? No. Do I think he should be in this team? Again it's a No from me

| For me one of the biggest disappointments was Chris Rudd. A quite outstanding youth player, I saw him score a cracker against Australia in a youth international, just never quite got to where he should have. Far more so than Rhys Evans.

duckie you are older than me - what's your verdict on putting Steve Roach in ahead of Teitzel? Roach did have that big game in the semi final against Wigan but overall wasn't he a flop relative to his three-time Dally M prop of the year reputation?
Also how about Scott Wilson ahead of Kevin Walters?

Jon Roper too, but this sounds like another thread: young players that didn't live up to their potential rather than players who had a 'reputation' when signing which sounds more like players brought in from outside.

Steve Roach was what I'd hope Roberts would be.
A fat lazy git who was saving everything for a final visit.
Roach put in forward performances bigger than any prop I ever saw in a Wire shirt from the 80s+ the only thing was, I could count them on 2 fingers....still it was double what we got from Roberts.

| I remember from the 1960's we signed Bob Fleet from Swinton. He was an ex Gt Britain centre, although past his best was deemed to be a good signing.
The biggest cheer I can remember at Wilderspool was when he actually caught a pass. Never seen so many knock ons from 1 player.
Makes Andy Currier seem like a Wilderspool legend

| I nominate the one and only David Kidwell.
After leaving Wire and returning to the NRL, he was a major success, but over here he couldn`t be ar$ed.

was reading this thread and he was my first thought, beat me too it.
Kevin Campion, I know he never played but had a big rep, only likes to play in warm weather! apparently

| I'd put Leroy Rivett on the wing instead of Matty Russell.
Unfortunately Leroy could never match up to his CC Final tryscoring record.
