Am surprised nobody from the older generation has mentioned Gordon Lewis: what a crash tackler! And not a single mention of Mick Martyn!! His cover defence was awesome: people tend to forget that and just remember his tries.

Geoff Clarkson isthe hardest I saw but then again I never saw Pawsey whom I'm told threw an aussie into the crowd whilst playing for Lancashire against the tourists at Warrington. Is this an old wives tale?
others ar boyd drummond owen walsh and cotterell.
I go for Clarkson as I saw him hit many but never saw anyone hit him.

| Pound for pound the hardest must have been Dessie Drummond
not many wingers have flattened a Aussie test prop wi a tackle
ive lost count of the number of players Dessie flattened with his technique
both on attack and defence real hard case and hardly got hurt himself  |
