Both great bowlers but I'll go with Hughes.

Probably have to go with Trumble. It's so hard to compare, but it sounds as if he was Laker-esque on sticky dogs & had enough about him as a batter to open for Oz in tests!

[andyc]

Trumble. Equal in the 'taches, yet Trumble's got the better figures.

Merv was a top bowler in his time, but Trumble was Australia's best off-spinner ever, so i'll go for him
