I can't even remember Luke Rooney.
He played one game when he was really bad (looked like a league player who didn't really know how to play) then got injured in his second game I think.

Lucky you. Some of us will never be able to forget him.

@Nepia You bastards poach Coman, May and Franks from Ta$man and have the absolute sauce to then start a thread rubbishing them.
I want the Mighty Kahn included in the poll as well!
Hawkes Bay - the only Mitre 10 Cup team to have an opera named for them....Il Gazza Ladra - The Thieving Magpies!!!

@Chris-B Coman disliked Ta$man so much he would rather play for Canterbury and Hawkes Bay instead.
He is quoted as saying he knows where his moral compass is and isn't willing to get paid in paper bags and doesn't need a new boat. That probably explains why he went elsewhere.

@Magpie_in_aus Agent Mike is as rich as fuck already. Headed north to scupper you guys.
Now back in Ta$man running the family construction company!

Marvin Karawana: Ex leaguie who shopped himself around the provinces, no one picked him up, not even the Taniwha as @taniwharugby will frequently remind us. But the powers that be at the Magpies ignored the wise men in the rest of the country and picked him up. He wasn't the Wainui SBW he was touted to be.
I will not have you insulting a Wainui player, actually he wasn’t even that great a prem player ended up being moved to 6 later in his club career...anyway my vote is Dan Kirkpatrick what a flop that guy was

I don't like those negative threads.
It's not mandatory for you to read the thread.
@Smudge said in Worst Magpies Import Poll:
What a strange way to mark your team's Championship win - starting a thread/poll focusing on bad imports (largely) from the past. Then again, the Hawke's Bay supporters on here proved a long time ago that they march to the beat of a very odd drum.
We can multitask, I'm on a 3 day celebration and this cathartic.

Kirkpatrick doesn't meet all the selection criteria.

I'm not sure why I missed out on voting in this pole but nonetheless would like my vote to be counted even though voting has closed. I wholeheartedly endorse Luke Rooney as the worst Magpie import and with that declare said Luke Rooney as sole winner of the contest rather than having to share the title!

Agree with that - who was he competing for a spot with at that time - Tim Manawatu? Even he was way better than the Aussie...

Hard to go past Luke Rooney in 2010 in this poll.
They went looking for another fullback when Israel Dagg was selected into the AB's in June, and not likely to make many appearances that year, HB somehow came across Luke Rooney ...
