It's a moot argument because everyone has a different interpretation of what constitutes "great".

On my scale, Luke Pattern doesn't come close.

2005 hodgeson smoked it. Top point scorer from memory? Killed it everytime he touched the ball

 

[TheFrog]

True, those 129 career tries all came in 2003

25 of them did. He was never the same again, he developed a stuttering step rather than just running, and it cost him a heck of a lot of speed.

Who thinks that Eels are going to win the comp this year?

No chance. For a team that is supposed to be top 4 material, their defence is putrid. They put 50 on us yet still conceded 34

THE NRL DOES !!

 

[WaznTheGreat]

We are a disgusting team

Rhyno and that's about it

 

[ZEROMISSTACKLES]

Souths look at Auvaa on the wing and see a try.

 

[typicalfan]

Tom has had a great game. He has played well the last month or so.

That means your defence is worse though?

Which also means you can't win the Comp

Maybe, but i think you underestimate Diamond Phillips. The guy single-handedly kept us in the 2000 GF and was probably the best player on the ground. 2002 he played with the worst shoulder injury I've seen (I saw the x-rays, it looked like rats had eaten his shoulder joint away) for at least 6 games and the GF. Probably our best player overall throughout that time. The guy was always up for the big games. To me, he was a great.

He started the death of NSW Origin for a decade the next year.

So that leaves the Storm, and....the Dragons?

 

[simmo05]

Out of all the shoulder charges ive seen all year, only the tigers seem to have been f**ked with a penalty for 1

 

[Rhyno]

Fmd

[typicalfan]

Storm Roosters with Sharks in case they get their act together.

He did, but i was saying how sensational he was in 05.
