From those I've seen, Lockyer is the best (and also the best player I have seen). Stewart is better than Slater too IMO, he's just not been able to string games together like Slater has over the past few years and I think people have kind of forgotten how great he can be. Slater is next, rubbing shoulders with the likes of Minichiello at his peak, Mullins, and Belcher. So he's still not exactly doing poorly for himself
We have had a ridiculous number of fantastic fullbacks over the past 10-15 years though...
:lol: You can't be serious! Stewart better than Slater? At which point in his career has he ever been better?
Minichiello was a really good fullback at his peak and is probably better than Billy at tackle breaking or probably safer under the high ball. But in every other category, Billy kills him.
Belcher, OMG! Belcher would struggle to make any rep side today but I guess its unfair to compare eras.
Mullins was also a fine player but Slater does everything Mullins does and more.
