Think I would have Albert for his defence over Sullivan and you have to make room for Apollo, his try in London won us the league

There is no way you cant put Bobby Goulding in before a multi Lance Todd winner who has won us Grand Finals

Shocking bad choice.

And no Mel Holden

Some good players left out of that as well.

We have been spoilt with some real talent for all of superleague

Someone mention Newlove?!?!??

I actually thought Albert had all the tools to be a phenomenal full back.

Plus he used to have his own stool in Crystals on the odd occasion I found myself there (you knew you were absolutely ruined when you'd visited that establishment). He was always in Crystals.

Ade Gardner has dramatically improved his game no end since he joined us. Admittley in his early career with us some of his defensive play was utterly appaulling infact at times non existant but he has improved beyond belief and is probably now the best Super League Winger in the competition

people might raise a few eyebrows about gilmore,but he has been one of our standout performers since we signed him.in a few years i think graham will be a better prop than anderson was,but we are talking now.
it just shows what great teams we have had when i have left out the likes of
prescott,newlove,iro,goulding,britt,gleason,hunte,and most of the current team.what a great club!

Gilmour has been so standout people can't spell his name right.

Quote ="snowdog"graham will be a better prop than anderson was,but we are talking now.'" I beg to differ. Baloo was great, but Graham is a once in a generation player www.superleague.co.uk/statistics ... eason=2009 Anderson was a better goal kicker though

Allways thought Bob G was the real deal number 7 for us, and started all our goodness. But he has been overtake by the GREAT Sean Long, Long has been the king dong for many years now and only Eastmond may be better, or Lee Briers son maybe...

Long needs go 7, remove Ade and stick in Albert, the forwards are the headache, far to many big men to choose from with the likes of Farleigh, Britt, Baloo, AP, Tony P, Joynty, Scully, Jammer, Fas, Sonny Nick, Freddy T, Derrick McVey, and the man that was Adam Foggy....oh I give up now.


Just get Albert and Longy in there though.

Pace to burn in the backs and monster forwards that are also mobile with good skills

The question is the best player in each position and although Long has been a fantastic player for us for so long he is and never will be the scrum half Bobby G was.

Sorry but they ARE the facts.

If Bobby had given us 10 years at the level he gave us 2/3 he would be considered as good as the Legend that is Murphy!

END

The facts are that Bobby G had it all and self destructed.
Long therefore get the honour for doing the business of a period of time not merely a one season wonder.
