Adelaide Tiger Posted May 18, 2020 Share Posted May 18, 2020 Does Pauli Pauli count as one or two players? As you could have PAULI Pauli by using his first name and then have Pauli PAULI Using his surname. What about Henry and Robbie Paul? Do they count? Never mind it’s my bedtime now ..... time to take my medication. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tommygilf Posted May 19, 2020 Share Posted May 19, 2020 Biased but Toms (probably reflecting my age too) 1. Tom Trbojevic 2. Tom lineham 3. Gareth Thomas 4. Tom Johnstone ( shoehorned in I know) 5. Tommy Makinson 6. Tommy Martyn 7. Thomas Leuluai 8. Tom Burgess 9. Tommy Lee 10. Tom Leroyd-Lahrs 11. 12. 13. Bit stumped with the final 3 tbh without going into pre war era players, naturally when searching for Toms or Thomas's you get a lot of Welsh converts too. Also theres a lot of Wingers and Fullbacks!

JonM Posted May 19, 2020 Share Posted May 19, 2020 Tom Olbison at second row? The Warrington/Leigh/GB second-row forward of the 1970s, Tommy Martyn is probably a bit before your time and would be playing in the same team as his son Tommy at stand-off.

In that case, put Tommy Snr to SO, move Tommy Jnr to loose and push Tommy Smales to SR..........ooo! It's like being a GB manager in the early 90s, playing g people out of position to get them in the team Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
