Rank the Lebanese players in our game

[EXPLORER]

In your opinion, how would you rank them?

They are (in no particular order):

• Robbie Farah
• Michael Lichaa
• Josh Mansour
• Tim Mannah
• Mitchell Moses

Why?
What's the point?
Stupid thread really
No offence
But I just don't get the point of it?

Not to sound like a dick but in the 90's there was so much racism by the junior recruiters and it was who you knew. So many Lebs were better than Corey Hughes and his bros but none were given a chance. Hazem was nowhere near the best Lebo at club level.

Oh
Now I get the point of this thread

Lol

Moses- Leb Kfasghabi name.

Moses, Abraham,Elias,Maroon, Rizk, karam etc are all surnames from Kfarsghab and pretty much all live in the area between Merrylands and Gladesville.

By default they will be christian.

That's a bit of a stretch @Nasheed. Moses I agree with, however Elias, Maroon, Rizk and Karam are pretty common Lebanese names and are from from north to south, east coast to west. While you will get some of those said families from Kfarsghab, they aren't exclusively located only to be descendants from that village.

True in a way, but if you meet a guy who calls himself Maroon, with an aussie accent and from around parra you cant tell me you wouldnt be thinking hes a foz.

Pretty much, its still the same these days as a few friends have went through it. Its all politics in the junior grades and who you know or are related too sadly

They a bit racist to other lebs, mainly in an elitist sorta way, generally well educated and do well.

I am the same to be honest with the elitist mentality towards other Lebs, coming from an educated family and growing up not too bad plus away from the crappier areas where some of own people of lower standards reside I don't see an issue with it. I just can't stand some Lebs who are a bad stereotype or are just dumb haha

Yes Hazem was. He dominated the u19s at only 18 and was easily the best. You must be dominant to get grade after only one season.

Did you watch them with your own eyes or just read reports? Ask any Leb and they will tell you of players better than Hazem.

Mate Hazem WAS talented. I'm not just talking about his goal kicking, he was a freakish try scorer too.
He is equal 7th.

To date, he has still scored more tries than legends such as Steve Renouf, Anthony Minichiello, Phil Blake and Reg Gasnier... just to name a few.

And none of that answers my question

Lets be honest, it will always be one of their relatives that are better.
