Scott Staniforth

I always thought he only played centres when he moved OS. But I'm watching the 01 Lions DVD and he played 13 for Aussie A.

Anyway.... As you were.

Anywhere in the backs except 9 and 10 8)

One of my favourite games. Loved it

Who wouldve been the islander number 6 for the Brumbies v the Lions? Not Fenukitau I don't think. He scored a try.

 

[RugbyReg]

In fact it was #7

Graeme Bond was the outside centre but swapped jerseys with Staniforth out of superstition because of his terrible run with injuries.

 

[RugbyReg]

Ahhhhh. I remember that now. Well done naza. You can be useful afterall.

Des Tuiavii, who later joined the Waratahs, replacing Stu Pinkerton.

 

[Lindommer]

Snap. Yes, he is useful. Occasionally. :-X :-X :-X

 

[RugbyReg]

It was Desie? Thought it might have been. Dunnings mate right?

 

[Lindommer]

Yeah, that's him. Played for the Pirates in Oz before heading off to the Old Dart where he joined Rotherham during their ill-fated season(s) in the old Zurich Premiership. From there I think he went to Edinburgh before disappearing. Desi was extremely fit and took great care of himself (apart from hanging around with Tucky!), his Brumbies/Tahs/Titans/Gunners career all occurred after he turned 30.

He played with another ancient Aussie at Rotherham and Edinburgh, Peter Jorgensen. Peter retired from Randwick last year aged about 37.

I thought it was Byrnes that snotted Dunning at training...oh wait, Tuiavaii did as well, some years back.

Violent bunch, those Tahs.

 

[RugbyReg]

Nah Dunning snoted Des on a mad Monday type thing. Or on a night out at least.

 

[Grandmaster Flash]

Dunning broke his nose I think? Was that before or after breaking the door off a taxi?
