"If Thurston or Bowen are injured the cowboys seem to lack spark." i'm pretty sure that is what he meant.
having read through this thread, i realize i don't really have any favourite players as such though if i was talking on an alltime basis it'd be a little different
im sort on in the same situation, my standout favorite player was Hunt but i since he is leaving and taking almost the whole season to just come out and say it i am kind of annoyed at him. I said Hodges but really he pisses me off just as much with all his suspensions and injuries.
theres a bunch of players where i've jumped on their bandwagon, but to me thats no where near enough to label them a favourite player
Favourite 13 1. Hunt 2. Michaels 3. Inglis 4. Hodges 5. Folau/Grothe 6. Lockyer 7. Campese 8. Civoneceva 9. Berrigan 10. TLL 11. Parker 12. Sims 13. Carroll
Some others I also wanna mention which include some former players. Wendell Sailor ( since I first saw him play NRL he was one of the best wingers Ive seen along with Lote) Hazem El Masri Justin Hodges Steve Renouf ( ****ing fast when I first saw him in the mid nineties) Brett Mullins - Freakish fullback, fastest over 100 metres that Ive seen.
I remember when Willie Carne somehow escaped the ingoal, then Renouf ran 100 metres to score an excellent try.
Im trying to find it. Might take awhile lol Trying to remember what game it was? Was it the 1992 grand final against the Dragons?
