Cunningham

Long

Sculthorpe

Farrell

Senior

Wellens

Deacon



My shortlist for players of the SL era.

oh, and Peacock.



That's based on top performances over a sustained period (all of them). None of this Renouf, Lyon, Langer rubbish.

harris?

No, not Harris. Good, but not up with those I've listed. I'd go for Robbie Paul above Harris.

disagree with that harris was class man of steel winner dont get me wrong paul was good too just think harris has the edge

For mine, Radlinski edges Wellens going FB for FB

Wot, no wire players?

Long trumps Deacon, Radlinski trumps Wellens, Peacock deserves a mention

Radlinski really struggled in his last few years and his team was largely terrible. He was one of those hype monsters who was credited with brilliance despite defending like a chocolate fireguard at times. Up until the end of Anderson's reign Wellens was inspirational, playing well above his ability levels.



Shows how few quality fullbacks we develop in this country though. I bet there are 10 fullbacks in the NRL currently that are better than those two.

its hardly a mouthwatering list of players though is it...

over half of that list wouldnt get near an Australian Test Jersey though....

Farrell and Sculthorpe, and Cunningham at his very prime might do....



Radlinski was miles better than Wellens in my opinion

Best player of the Super League era IMO.

no Rodwell or Dean Hangar in that list of best SL players, i am surprised
