Brett Kenny
Shaun Edwards
Andrew Farrell
Henry Paul
Trent Barrett

Are they players we have to have seen regularly?

Nope. Just your personal top 5 players that have played in your lifetime.

No, Ellery ?????

Ok

In order, my favourites through my time as a supporter...

Ellery Hanley
Henderson Gill
Andy Gregory
Gene Miles
Brett Kenny


I'm sure I'll wake up in the middle of the night and remember that I should have put player X instead of player Y but at 13.15 on Tuesday 26th May, they're my favourites.

My 5,

Boston
Hanley
Ashurst
Kenny
Farrell

But McTigue is pushing them close, and Gregory..............damn !!!!!!!!

I've grown to appreciate him much more now I'm older but I was brought up to know that Edwards and Farrell we're Wiganers and there was always extra admiration for them on the terraces. At the time Henry Paul was is his prime, I was 9 or 10 and had started to enjoy and understand playing the game and he was somebody I really enjoyed watching and tried replicating things he did in games. I chose Brett Kenny because out of all overseas imports, he seems to be revolutionary, extraordanary and the leading example of any overseas player. Finally Trent Barrett is the latest legend in the modern era, in pretty much new game.

Ellery Hanley was probably better than all of them, but the others probably mean more to me.

Difficult as there have been so many.

Billy Boston
Brian McTigue
Shaun Edwards
Andy Farrell
David Bolton.

Four Wigan lads and an honorary Wiganer

Tough question!
If i had to go simply on who i enjoyed watching though, it would be:

Adrian Lam - [iLittle man, Massive heart[/i
Frano Botica - [iThe master goal-kicking machine[/i
Shaun Edwards - [i100% Warrior. 'Nuff said?[/i
Brett Dallas - [iSheer class on the wing[/i
Tuigamala - [iNice guy off the pitch. An utter beast on it![/i

Yeah...Would happily see all 5 in our current side.

Farrell
Lam
Hanley
C. Smith
Offiah

I will instantly dismiss anyone who doesn't have Hanley in their list, young poster or old!

Hanley
Inga
Myles
Edwards
Faz

honourable mentions to Bell, Paul, and Pongia.

Hanley
Tuigamala
Robinson
Edwards
Offiah


Bell, Farrell, Gregory, Miles etc could have quite easily made that five.

Faz,
Edwards,
Robinson
Cassidy
Newton

The last two aren’t the greatest of all time especially Cassidy but I still thought he was quality.

Very hard to leave off Rads, Bell, Offiah, Inga, Cowie and Skerrett.

is it the off season already?

Yeah. Well from 9:45pm ish Friday.

Tuigamala
Edwards
Cowie
Furgeson
Peters

This is impossible if you have been watching Wigan since the 50's, as I have, and a few others on this board also have.

hanley
gene miles
brett kenny
kevin iro
shaun edwards

Is that because those people's memories aren't what they used to be?

Betts
Hanley
Edwards
Radlinski
Smith (Tony)

Before everyone slates me for picking Tony Smith, it did say favourite players. He wasn't really the player we needed, not being much of an organising halfback, but I just liked watching him. Strikes me that he would actually probably do better in today's Super League, with his greyhound-like pace, eye for the try line and support play - kind of a forerunner of Danny McGuire.

Boston
McTigue
Offiah
Edwards
Hanley

Fairbairn, Miles, Kenny, Ferguson, Farrell, Gregory and Alan Davies deserve a mention.
My dad thought Jim mSullivan was pretty exceptional.

Big Wayne McDonald
Richie Mathers
Denis Moran
Doc Murray
Shem Tatupu

Hanley
Faz
Edwards
Bell
Platt
