Best and worst biffers

[I Bleed Maroon]

Best: Gordon Tallis on Ben Ross. The Bull rarely missed and he certainly didn't here:


Worst has to be Jason "never heard of the f**ker" Smith, who clearly couldn't hit water if he fell out of a boat:

Who’s Jason Smith

Absolute dog act by Tallis in this instance. You couldn't have picked a worse example. Best biff? You've obviously never heard of it.

David Furner knocked the f**k out of Shane Webcke and was the Canberra gym champion when he was coaching the club

He could throw them.

 

[King hit]

Justin Hodges the worst of them all

There is some agitated bloke down at the aquarium telling me he cant log in.

Haha a LU classic

Barrie McDermott and Stuart Fielden loved to go at each other every opportunity!

 

[blue bags]

some English players loved to dish out a licken

 

[Desert Qlder]

The worst are Johns, Webcke and Willie Mason.

 

[Bring back John Fifita]

Best - Tom Raudonikis, Ian Roberts, Les Davidson, Peter Kelly, Steve Bowden, Paul Harragon, Kevin Campion, Paul Gallen, Mario Fenech, Ray Price.

Kevin Tamati n Greg Dowling - best all time fight for mine..at Lang Park.

Worst - everyone at the MCG State of Origin in 1995. Many people rate that as a classic origin brawl.. but to me its embarrassing. Everyone knew it was coming before the match, so you’d think Channel 9 would be clued in on the likes of Harragon etc when it kicked off... yet nothing of the props who could throw em... it was Moore v Barnhill, wingers, and absolute nuffies throwing handbags at each other, and still missing!

I cringe any time it comes up..

He has genuinely been acknowledged as the best fighter/boxer in the Australian rugby league community. I've only seen him throw them once and he had seriously good form.
Another one who was very good, believe it or not, was Scott Prince.

Honestly a cheap shot from Tallis

Yes I’ve heard all about Furner, has he ever been a professional boxer though? Or what’s his amateur record?

Players who also boxed to various successes include Monty Betham, Anthony Mundine, Mark Broadhurst, Solomon Haumono, Sonny-Bill Williams. I’m sure there’s others but that’s off the top of my head. Of these, Mundine has to be considered the most successful.

And I’m not including the fly-by-nighters in that list (Lussick, Hodges and co). And no, not Jeff Fenech either.

Billy Johnstone came out of the Brisbane comp and played for a few years at the
Bulldogs...really good hooker...had about 25 pro fights if I remember correctly.
Never saw him throw 'em on the field as no-one took him on.
I never saw Monty Betham fight either but he had a fearsome reputation.
Never saw Ruben or Petero fight either....imagine those two with their blood up.

 

[Lukemac]

Mitchell Pearce, Braith Anasta, and Daniel Vidot All deserve honourable mentions in the worst fighter department.
But Matt Sing probably takes the prize.

 

[The Marshall]

Going off this Monty is one of the best and Steve Readon is one of the worst.

Yeah the hook he dropped Webcke with was no f**king accident, he shaped up, protected himself, found the opening and landed it as clean as you like
Furner was not a pub brawler

Dunno if that does Betham or Reardon justice. Monty started laying into Reardon when he was getting to his feet, and I'd be covering up too.

I remember Sirro in a game against the Dragons back in the late-80's, saturday arvo ABC one. Wally Fullerton-Smith had a relatively minor crack at Sirro, who fired up then towered over him to throw an absolute fearsome combination back at Wally. Went on for about 4-5 seconds, which doesn't sound like much, but reckon there was at least a dozen thrown... Wally had his hands up "protecting himself" like he was on a golf course when someone shouts "FORE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!".. Sirro was an absolute beast - and I cant recall any fights he had after that - maybe coz everyone else saw it and thought better than to poke that bear.

While Tamati and Dowling was the best I've seen, this is my favourite - and funniest.

Les Davidson and Peter Kelly.
