NRL Team of the Decade 2010-2019

[TheFrog]

Back 3 of the second team is head and shoulders above the first teams

It'd be a good game.

 

[typicalfan]

Big "f**k you" to Farah.

To Cook.

 

[King hit]

Cordner? Pretty slow decade.

Back to back Origin series winning captain, premiership winning captain and Origin series winning captain first for a NSW player since Mortimer. Captains Australia and his club and state superbly.

Yeah what a spud

 

[KOMORI]

Hodges acceptance speech was extraordinary though... makes some solid points...

“Garglehumpenbonkle.... ummm.... dorkenfarkenwayneepoopen, borklegarglehurglepump!! Lurkenfarkenshlothfielddrunken, Kentyporkenikinsuckendoychenbag”

 

[King hit]

Had a go myself.

1: Billy Slater
2: Brett Morris
3: Justin Hodges
4: Jamie Lyon
5: Jarryd Hayne
6: Jonathan Thurston
7: Cooper Cronk
8: David Klemmer
9: Cameron Smith (Captain)
10: Matt Scott
11: Boyd Cordner
12: Sam Burgess
13: Jason Taumololo

14: James Maloney
15: Paul Gallen
16: Sonny Bill Williams
17: Corey Parker

Coach: Craig Bellamy

I thought it was an easy decision tbh.

Taumalolo is the forward of the decade; not merely just the lock.

I wouldn't blink twice before choosing Lolo in my team over Parker & Gallen even as a pair.

They did it for a decade though and we're the cream of the crop till Lolo came along. Lolo is already looking at being surpassed by bigger, faster blokes who punch out bigger minutes.

Those 2 were the dominant locks for majority of the decade.

I guess I'm hard to please haha f**k me Lolo 3rd? What a privilege.

 

[AJB1102]

To Cook.

Considered giving him a mention but over the decade he's a flash in the pan.

 

[betcats]

The f**k is Boyd corder doing anywhere near this team?

NRL Team of the Decade: 2010-2019
Robert Crosby | August 21 2019 7:34PM

Honourable mention: Preston Campbell

-----

As the decade draws to a close, debate over the greatest players of the 2010's will be sure to inspire plenty of spirited discussion.

Countless stars have contributed moments set to live long into the annals of rugby league history over the past ten years, but to feature in the Team of the Decade consistency over a sustained period of time takes precedence over discrete seasons of individual brilliance.

To qualify for the Team of the Decade, members of the starting side had to play the majority of the decade in their selected position, while the interchange comprised of the best remaining outside back, playmaker, forward and utility.

This list is entirely subjective - so please engage with an open mind rather than hurling insults with no justification provided.

Yeah what a spud

Not even half the player Luke Lewis is

 

[T-Boon]

Is there a committee that Trent Robinson isn’t on? Does he hold a position on the NRL salary cap committee as well?

Who the f**ks Robert Crosby? Aubo, Boyd, Croker puhlease!

 

[mozza91]

In what universe is Hodges (or Croker lol) a better player than Jamie Lyon?

 

[veggiepatch1959]

The GOAT doesn't play lock.

The idiots that compiled these lists are just that.....idiots.

 

[Valheru]

Of course Godner is in the team may peace be upon him.

He would be a moral for captain too and would be man of the match in any hypothetical game the team played.

 

[Fangs]

Fraudner. The myth continues.

Oh well, 2 origin series wins makes it easier to stomach.

 

[Rhyno]

Where the hell is Nathan Hindmarsh

 

[SBD82]

Where the hell is Nathan Hindmarsh

Love the bloke. But 2010-2012 weren’t exactly the best years of his career.

 

[muzby]

Sam Burges??

Never heard of the f**ker..

The full article is at NRL.com, including the vote tallies.

Props are a joke. Fifita, Klemmer and Graham should be there

Morgan? Yeh na

Morris? Probably a fair call. Wasn’t a great decade for wingers

Radradra...wtf? Fergo way better and more longevity

Farah and Cook ridiculous omissions. I’d even have DCE and Jackson in the second team over some of the guys picked
