We all remember the club legends. The guys from the 100,150 or 200 club. Stalwarts that become part of the furniture at your favourite team. They become engrained into the history of the club.

As the years tick by and the NRL seasons fly passed, more and more players are checking out the grass on the other side.

But is it always greener?

This list is here to make you say, “did he really play there?”.
