Best 13 Since 02

[rabbitohs95]

This is gonna be a huge debate but considering it's been a decade and a half since we got back into the comp, who's our best 13? I figured having the bench would make things a bit murky so I stuck to the on field squad.

Bear in mind that my list is my list and I based it on the players' overall performance at the club. There are some controversial choices but I have my reasoning.

1. Greg Inglis (11-present)

2. Nathan Merritt (02-14)

3. Beau Champion (05-10, 13-14)

4. Dylan Walker (13-15)

5. Alex Johnston (14-present)

6. John Sutton (c) (04-present)

7. Adam Reynolds (12-present)

8. Luke Stuart (02-11)

9. Issac Luke (07-15)

10. Roy Asotasi (07-13)

11. Chris McQueen (09-15)

12. Ben Te'o (13-14)

13. Sam Burgess (10-present)

Shadow... What would YOU do with The Burgess Clan and Inglis if YOU were GM?? You appear to have some degree of ambiguity on exactly where your endless critiques and sarcasm would lead to. Dumping a busloads of "duds" is easy. What do you do about Maguire - a record of 11-18 from 2016-17 so far - the highest paid Salary Cap individuals and new recruitment?? Are YOU pro/contra Maguire and the players mentioned???

 

[ThingFish]

Mine aren't based on service to the club, just on skill and the players I've enjoyed watching over the years. Plus if all where fully fit and in the prime of their game they'd represent against anything else the other clubs could muster.

2. Nathan Merritt

3. Beau Champion

4. Nigel Vangana

5. Lote T

6. Craig Wing

7. Adam Reynolds

8. David Kidwell

9. Issac Luke

10. Roy Asotasi (c)

11. John Sutton

12. Ben Te'o

13. Sam Burgess

11. McQueen
12. Te'o
13. Crocker

I actually liked Talanoa.
And Manauokafoa over Cleal?

 

[The Mad Hatter]

Yileen Gordon in his first season in 2005 was an absolute monster.

I don't know what happened to him, but I remembered him smashing up Manly in Rd 14 at the SFS (his 2nd game).

Yeah Fetuli was a victim of our inept era.

Poor bugger.
