who is better?

(this stems from a heated argument that me and my workmates had the other night)

And who did you say was better?

Both are very inspirational leaders and both their teams struggle/d without them, but i would rather have Johns in my team than Fittler.

Joey and by a long way. Not to say that Fittler was not a giant of the game, just that Joey is without a doubt the most dominant and bestplayer of his generation.

I voted for Johns, only because of his consistancy.

But when it comes to pure brilliance Fittler is probably the best ever.

As I've stated before, I've watched Changa, Bozo and King Wally, and I never thought I'd ever see a player better than Chang, but after last year's Sydney origin game I realised I'd watched the best of all time.
His name is Andrew (Joey) Johns. :clap:

My thoughts, though I'm nowhere near as ancient as you ;-)

Before that I thought Johns was alot more hype than his substance. That game was his masterpiece imo.

I've been privileged to have watched Johns play since he was a 17 year old running around in our lower grades. I doubt i'll, indeed any league fan, will ever see a player quite as complete and dominate as Johns.

And he does it for more then 3 games a year...
