2018 RL Hall of Fame

[Gronk]

We have three merkins nominated:-

Bob Lindner (for his f**k all contribution to the Eels in 87/88)
Rod Reddy (for his nuffy recruitment at the Eels)
Ron Lynch (genuine Eels legend - Ping @parra pete )

 

[Twizzle]

Ron Lynch is the only one that made sense,

He could have been a legend on his drinking alone, would have given Boonie a run for his money.

 

[Gary Gutful]

Current eels hall of famers:

Thornett, Beetson, Cronin, Price, Sterling, Grothe, Kenny.

 

[strider]

Alot of quality in that list to pick from this time ... glad im not picking

 

[forward pass]

Not true about Bob Lindner. He helped us crawl back from 22 nil down to beat the Raiders at Parra in 1987.

[Haynzy]

I reckon Ella should’ve been in the 25 too.

 

[Gazzamatta]

I reckon Steve Edge should have been a chance.

 

[Gary Gutful]

I reckon Steve Edge should have been a chance.

Agreed.

I know Lynch was an exceptional player. Do you think he was better than either Dick Thornett or Bob O'Reilly? What's your opinion, Pete?

Thornett, Beetson, Cronin, Price, Sterling, Grothe, Kenny.

All of whom are more deserving of a spot in the RL hall than most of the short list..

Seriously, who came up with this list?

I thought the HoF was a new thing? Shows how much I pay attention...

Doesn't change the fact that a lot of the list is questionable at best..

It's been going for quite a while now, but it was always just hidden within the Dally M awards show. I'm glad they have finally given it more recognition by having it as its own thing now. It's something the US sports do really well, and it seems we are taking a page out of their book.
