I'd rather listen to oops than Rothfield.
Said nothing about the immortal title
Just laughing at those who are saying 'Lockyer wasn't that good....'
Far too many great players to ask anyone with even a modicum of RL nous to separate them . . . all did their best with the opportunities they had in their erasNever been a fan of the Immortals concept.
The original idea was to help promote a new wine label. Churchill, Raper, Gasnier & Fulton were great ambassadors for the game and really there was no need to keep revising the list.
If anything, I would have been fine if every 10 years (eg. 2021, 2031 etc.) you induct a previous generation into the fold as a fun tradition, but this process now where you've got a panel of 18 voting 3-2-1 out of 10 players feels too rich for something that should just be a bit of fun.
I'm completely on board with revisiting the Hall of Fame and honoring the players who helped define and shape the game.
Because defence is 50% of the game.
I'd rather listen to you than either of them.I'd rather listen to oops than Rothfield.
