Thurston

 

[age_master]

Thurston for me, Johns is a far better TV personality than he was a footballer and thats saying something...

agreed. Thurston for me too.

 

[Cloete]

Thurston

 

[steds]

Hahaha. Thurston. Don't rate Johns at all. Wigan might as well have signed a blind bloke with no hands for 2001.

 

[Smudge]

Thurston

 

[Johnners]

Thurston

 

[dontcloseyoureyes]

Johns.

 

[BoyBrumby]

Thurston, clearly. As steds implied Johns snr kinda sucked over here.

 

[Blewy]

Thurston, although Johns wasnt that bad...

 

[speirz]

Johns, but in a year probably Thurston. (no bias here either........)

 

[Simon]

Thurston through...

[Simon]

Im gonna be controversial and vote for Morley. I think he made a brave move coming to Aus when he did and had a huge impact on the game here. he proved its not impossible for Englishmen to have a good career here, although Chris Thorman did attempt to prove that theory wrong...

 

[dontcloseyoureyes]

Yeah Morley for me too.

 

[Johnners]

Hindmarsh - One of the top 5 fowards in the era imo, arguably top 3.

 

[chaminda_00]

Hindmarsh only BK and Menzies are better

 

[speirz]

Hindmarsh, he carries Parramatta for alot of the time, Morley tried to carry the Roosters and Britain, but couldn't quite do it.

 

[Johnners]

Hindmarsh only BK and Menzies are better

Webcke....

 

[vic_orthdox]

Hindmarsh.

 

[chaminda_00]

Webcke....

Is Webcke a back rower, i must have missed something?

 

[Johnners]

haha fair point, tbh i thought you were talking about "fowards" in general.
