Greatest Ever Raiders Team - Nominations for the Bench

[greeneyed]

OK, nominations for who should be on the bench....

And suggestions on how many forwards/backs there should be.......

And suggestions on how we decide......

 

[I Bleed Green]

I can't remember who suggested this, so my apologies to the person who came up with it, but I like this idea the best:

1 x prop
1 x 2nd rower
1 x fullback/winger/centre
1 x half/five-eighth/hooker

I think it's the most fair solution IMO.

 

[Stelios Giannakopoulos]

Mark McLinden- On his day was amazing 8)

 

[paulquinn49]

Chris O'Sullivan

Piss Macca off.

Todd

 

[greeneyed]

Mullins, Todd, O'Sullivan and Coyne/Lance must be high on the list IMO.

 

[raiders_lover_18]

Brett Mullins is a must

 

[greeneyed]

The other options are Croker and Kevin Walters given the number of positions they can cover.

 

[Tidus_Raider]

Toots has to be there.

 

[raiders_boy]

I think if the guy who has played the most ever first grade games for the Raiders isn't there, then its a great shame.

I also think Mullins must be there, given that I voted for him at fullback and wing. Apart from that reason, I think Mullins was one of the best footballers we ever had at teh Raiders, and it is another great shame that he wasnt in the best 13, because I would definitely have him in our best 13 players of all time not counting positions.

That avatar is so awesome raiders_boy.

Mullins, Croker, Davico, Coyne would be mine.

 

[girvie]

Outside back- Brett Mullins
Inside Back- Chris O'Sullivan
Prop- Brent Todd (provided Backo is in the starting team).
Back Row- Jason Croker

 

[Raider_69]

Toots and Mullo are specials

 

[Chippo Raiders]

Toots, Sullo, Mullo, and Davico.....got the oooos going....if not Davico then Backo :lol:

 

[Raiders Plight]

Toots for sure, i would have had him in the centres over Jackson. Not saying toots is a better player but his given the club years of service and is our leading try scorer.

 

[Kris_man]

prop: Luke Davico/Sam Backo
back rower: Jason Croker
three-quarter: Brett Mullins (a no-brainer)
half: Mark McLinden

 

[Anonymous]

Brandon Costin is a must.

 

[Raider_69]

i concur with Timbo
Costin needs a spot, he seriously is too good to miss out IMO

 

[Chippo Raiders]

why cause he and the Yanks are smashing us

 

[edabomb]

Costin would give us a goal kicker off the bench.

I'll remove Coyne from my original bench and put Costin in .

Costin's carving up the best that Australia have to offer - it's not as though the Kangaroos are fielding a 2nd rate side. Take him out of the Tommahawks team, and they're gone.
