Does anyone think that in the modern game its better to have wingers that are pretty bulky? Going on the fact that the best 2 wingers of the super league era were Big Les and now Ryan Hall?

At the risk of venturing into the dark side, the best winger RU has ever seen was Jonah Lomu (again a massive winger)

any thoughts?

Castleford's new winger Justin Carney is the same build as Danny Nutley

Fast Wingers are great like Offiah Wingers with good acceleration and step are great like Jason Robinson and Chicka Ferguson Big fast skilled destructive Wingers like Eric Grothe senior are probably the best of the lot. www.youtube.com/watch?feature=pl ... xxR-CYHX3c

Grothe Snr was an absolute freak of nature - he was Jonah Lomu before anyone knew who Lomu was.

He could go over you or around you with equal comfort, and once he hit clear space you weren't going to catch him.

It was an absolute privilege to see him (albeit briefly) in the flesh playing for Leeds.

I have been lucky enough to see "The Guru" live more than a few times and he was one of a handful of players that set the Crowd alight and to their feet when ever he touched the ball. Great player that wound through the gears like a thoroughbred, the power and energy he had was unbelievable. www.youtube.com/watch?feature=pl ... _6loPG0TCw
