Is there any way to find out if someone who says they played for an NRL team actually did?

Question

I have searched online in as many places as I can think of but cannot find any info regarding the person in question (no I won't reveal names publicly). This relates to Australian rugby ...

Answer 1

tell us his name

Answer 2

I'm thinking you can go to many search engines and type the name in to see what you get.  Its worth a try.

Answer 3

Yeah, I'd say to just type the name in a search engine and look at the results, or you could try wikipedia.

Or perhaps if you can't find him, it could mean that he never did play in the NRL.

Answer 4

yes, sure can.  Need to know what team though and the year (or years) they claim to have played.  

Answer 5

hes name would help. theirs thousands of people on y answers im sure someone would know him. Yahoo is ya best hope if u cant find him any where else

Answer 6

Cant have been that good if he doesnt have any info on him what so ever in searches.. Even the unprofessional Toyota Cup players have Wiki Pages, if he played for a club for at least 5 or so games there would be some kind of record..

Answer 7

Just replace that "Shannon_Gallant" part with the first name, then a _ then the last name.

Answer 9

I'm gonna take a punt and guess that who ever he is didn't play first grade or there would definitely be some record of it.

Why don't you tell him you'd love to see him in action and try and get him to show you some footage. There are a lot of one hit wonders who play a few games so there is a slight possibilty he's telling the truth.

Either that or he is just trying to get in your pants.

Answer 10

Nearly all teams have listed somewhere on their website past and present players.  If you google him and nothing comes up, either you have spelled the name wrong or he was talking c**p.

Come on - tell us who it is???

Answer 11

The AFL have again led the way with a marvellous publication that list every player from 1897 until present day, the NRL should have something similiar but if, as per usual they, are 10 years behind the AFL you may have some trouble, good luck!!
