    Minichiello :lol: fmd

    How on earth is he in there over Tedesco/Hayne/RTS

    Cronk > Turdston. Fact.

    And fuck Gallen, he's a drug cheat and doesn't deserve to read this list let alone be on it

    Peak Mini was a genuine gun tbf. Though granted I was like 10 at the time so my eye for the game probably wasn't flash (still isn't but a lot of that is down to lack of watching).

    But the fact that he's there and Hayne is ridiculous. Hayne's career/life went downhill rapidly after heading to the NFL but for a good solid six year period he was up there with Slater as far as the game's best fullback goes.

    Maloney shouldn't be there either. The fact that he's there but the likes of Kimmorley/Prince/Gower/Carney/plenty of other cunts I'm surely forgetting aren't is silly.

    And that's just out of halves!

    I don't mind Maloney being there tbh. He had a lot of success over his career.

    Also Hayne at his best was the best player in the game. 09 Hayne is the highest level of football I've ever watched.

    Oh true.

    The fact that one of my 5 wont be in there makes for a shithouse list.
     
  7. jazman84 JM Eightyfour

    He sticks out like dog balls in this list though.

    You honestly think Benji Marshall is a better player than SBW, Civoniceva, Taumalolo, Buderus, Webcke etc.?

    Are you taking the piss?

    Jesus Christ he's not even better than a handful of cunts I could name who arent even on the bloody list.
     
  9. Maroon_Faithful M Faithful

    Maloney is a joke selection. Hindmarsh, Price, Kimmorley, Berrigan were all better players. And a whole lot more.
     
  10. Lukic L Popovic

    He's on the same level as most of them and his impact on rugby league and his legacy is far greater than any of those, yes.

    Marshall, Thurston and Smith are the 3 iconic players of this mid 2000s - 2020 generation.
     
  11. Boobidy BJ Gemmell

    The list as a whole is a joke, can't really argue with the top 3 however.

    Fox Sports written content has always been shit, but their stuff since we’ve been without sport has gone down to another level of shitness.

    Best one the other day was James Hooper and Matty Johns saying Phil Gould or Wayne Bennett were favourites to succeed Greenberg as CEO. You can only laugh.
     
  13. Maroon_Faithful M Faithful

    Yeah but the list isnt about how many kids copied your style.
     
  14. jazman84 JM Eightyfour

    I bet the journo simply forgot about Gallen lol
     
  15. Alex AJ O'Driscoll

    Journo a very generous word
     
  16. Boobidy BJ Gemmell

    Uncle Nick wants everyone to start on 0 points. lolz

    I think it's a reasonable argument. He's only suggesting points should be scrapped if there's a reduced season. Which in his words "It’s like changing the race from a Melbourne Cup (two miles) to a Doncaster (one mile) after it’s already started".

    Which I get from a club who chose not to have a trial game leading into Round 1 and rested their captain for the opening 2 rounds playing the long game like they have many times before under Robinson.

    From what I understand they're looking at 3 structures of competition;

    - Conference style, 8 teams in 2 pools 7 games. Then he's 100% correct point tally's must be re-set.
    - Play each team once, so play out the remaining 13 rounds. In which case I think you could argue either way so not really fussed what they do.
    - Play the season through to November. In which case of course points wouldn't be re-set.

    The conference system is the only reason the points should be reset, and I think it's the dumbest option.

    If it's gonna be a shorter season, it should just be play each team once, points stand from first 2 rounds

    Might be the dumbest but it may also become the only option.

    Sounds like Qld are going to play hard ball with the NRL in trying to get the comp back up and running. Trust, fake league fans.
