Best all time NSQ imports team

In this fallow week I thought it'd be interesting to see what the best time of non qualified imports we could come up with was. Based on form while here rather than career. My ideas below

1. Kebble
2. Flynn ( not many options I can think off - Titterell?)
3. Halanukonuka (or Jerry)
4. Nakarawa
5. Bresler
6. Blackadder
7. Gibbins (I prefer him to Favaro)
8. Semo S
9. Niko Matawalu
10. Tommy Hayes
11. Sarto
12. Gibson?
13. Sam Beard
14. Tanner Vili
15. Stortoni

Any suggestions?

DTH on one wing is a cert.

Maybe Scott barrow in the centres

T-Bone the cannuck prop should be at LHP based on contribution to the sides. I'm sure he was weeg player of the year.

Kebble may take it in time. Well he should.

Talei at 8.
Niko anywhere.
Always thought Aramburu was quite a decent player as well. Better than the centre options in the list at present IMO.

Also thought Sean Cox was a very good player for Edinburgh but I don't recall if he qualified for Scotland?

Oh yeah forgot about him. Could maybe fit him in at 13 where we dont have much

Talei was a funny one. Very good for a while then it all seemed to go wrong. I remember Setiti's play more for Samoa but he was a serious player

Sititi was a good player.

Did Edinburgh not used to have a couple of decent argies as well? I seem to remember one - an outside back getting a fair few caps for Edinburgh. I looked up Leonelli but I can only see Glasgow and Sarries in his club history.

I thought Leonelli might have gone on loan to Edinburgh at some point

ESPN says he made 18 appearances for Edinburgh before signing for Glasgow. It's a shame the clubs don't keep a record on the website of players past & present.
