End of beetson - start of meninga.

1982 Series vs NZ

Only problem is Mal's not an immortal. And I doubt Beetson would have played in '82. So I'll take a guess - the end of Churchill's signalled the start of Fulton's? (dunno when!)

How about 1968 World Cup. End of Johnny Raper's International career. Start of Bob Fulton's?

 

[brooksy19]

Mals not an Immortal ? I thought he was inducted ohh well.

John Raper, Reg Gasnier, Bob Fulton, Clive Churchill, Wally Lewis and Graeme Langlands.

Raper, Langlands and Gasnier were 60's/early 70's. Churchill was what late 40's/50's era.
Fulton was 70's, Beetson was 70's/early 80's and Wally was 80's/early 90's.

Im gonna say Raper/Fulton dunno what series though.

 

[m0j0]

Clive Churchill 1947 - 1956
Reg Gasnier 1959 - 1967
John Raper 1959 - 1968
Graeme Langlands 1963 - 1974
Arthur Beetson 1966 - 1974
Bob Fulton 1968 - ???
Wally Lewis 1981 - 1991

I'll go with my original answer - 1968 World Cup: End of Raper, start of Fulton.
