I don't understand why anybody is putting Johns at 5/8. If he must be in the team (and he easily should be), then it's at halfback and nowhere else. Some have even put Johns at 5/8 and Thurston at halfback. Once upon a time, Thurston was a 5/8 and today remains much more suited there than Johns ever was.

Where is Paul Gallen?


That bloke is a legend and should be included in any team

You must be fooking joking,all Gallen is a dirty Cronulla thug.

1. Darren Lockyer
2. Jason Robinson
3. Steve Renouf
4. Greg Inglis
5. Martin Offiah
6. Shaun Edwards
7. Andy Gregory
8. Kevin Ward
9. Martin Dermott
10. Andy Platt
11. Gordon Tallis
12. Andy Farrell
13. Ellery Hanley

Only 9 ex Wigan players,thought you would have done better than that.

He's captain of my Grub XIII that's for sure.

1. Steve Hampson
2. Jason Robinson
3. Steve Renouf
4. Mal Meninga
5. Martin Offiah
6. Willie Horne
7. Andrew Johns
8. Kevin Ward
9. Lee Jackson
10. Steve Roach
11. Gordon Tallis
12. Andrew Farrell
13. Ellery Hanley

14. Andy Platt
15. Bradley Clyde
16. Adrian Morley
17. Gus Risman

Gall is EASILY the best second rower in the world right now!

No risk

Greg Bretnall
Kerry Boustead
Steve Rogers
Ellery Hanley (out of position, but you cannot leave him out)
Eric Grothe
Bobby Fulton
Roger Millward
Brian Lockwood
Flash Flanagan
Artie Beetson
Phil Lowe
Wayne Pearce
Steve Norton

Struggled with stand off with the likes of Millward, Fulton, Kenny, Lewis and Hanley, so I have gone for Millward at 7 to get at least two of those in

If you saw Willie Horne and Gus Risman play you would have to be joking about Jackson

<giggle>

It’s all about opinion, and everyone is entitled to one. As far as my personal memories go this is my all time 13;

1 Gary Jack
2 Jason Robinson
3 Gary Schofield
4 Mal Meninga
5 Martin Offiah
6 Brad Fitler
7 Peter Sterling
8 Kevin Ward
9 Ben Elias
10 Lee Crooks
11 Gordon Tallis
12 Andy Farrell
13 Ellery Hanley

1 Billy Slater
2 Eric Grothe (snr)
3 Jamie Lyon
4 Mal Meninga
5 Henderson Gill
6 Wally Lewis
7 Ricky Stuart
8 Martin Bella
9 Kieran Cunningham
10 Kevin Ward
11 Gorden Tallis
12 Sam Thaiday
13 Ellery Hanley

14 Paul Sculthorpe
15 Jonathan Davies
16 Wayne Pierce
17 Sam Backo

In the time I've been watching...

1. Billy Slater
2. Jason Robinson
3. Mark Gasnier
4. Greg Inglis
5. Wendell Sailor (Brisbane days...Folau was close though, that kids a freak)
6. Darren Lockyer
7. Andrew Johns
8. Dave Farleigh
9. Cameron Smith
10. Shane Webke
11. Gordon Tallis
12. Stephen Kearney
13. Brad Fittler

14. Willi Mason (of old)
15. James Graham
16. Adrian Morley (at Leeds)
17. Paul Scultorpe

I know it's all about personal opinion, and everyone's entitled to their views, but I'm surprised that there are so many people who don't have Darren Lockyer and Ellery Hanley in their team ..................... excluding those too young to have seen them.

Both are among the first 4 or 5 names on my team sheet

In my personal XIII (started watching properly in 2002):

1. Darren Lockyer
2. Jason Robinson
3. Mark Gasnier
4. Jamie Lyon
5. Israel Folau
6. Brad Fittler
7. Andrew Johns
8. Shane Webcke
9. Cameron Smith
10. Petero Civonaceva
11. Gordon Tallis
12. Craig Fitzgibbon
13. Andy Farrell

14. Stuart Fielden (pre-Wigan days)
15. Billy Slater
16. Jamie Peacock
17. Greg Inglis

You say you only started watching proper in 2002 yet you have Robinson in your team,by then he was in yawnion.

You seem to be quite up to speed on your 'whose who' in the good old 15 man code CJ???

I think you are protesting a bit too much about hating union.

In fact I reckon you have got a season ticket for the Cardiff Blues

If only you knew Barry.

1. Lockyer
2. Robinson
3. Inglis
4. ET or Gasnier (on a good day)
5. Albert (Late Newcastle days)
6. Johns (out of position, just had to get him in somewhere)
7. Langer
8. Civenoceva
9. Buderus/ Smith cant make my mind up
10. Morley
11. Tallis
12. Nikau
13. Sculthorpe

14. Slater
15. Farrell
16. Steve Price
17. Webke

Couldn't fit them all in but I loved watching Renouf, Minichello, Kearney, Vagana (Nigel) and Freddie Fitler

ET
