Yep he's definitely one of the all time greats, and not just for his rugby league skills. A true champ.
I miss the way he used to tackle ... when you got hit by Ian Roberts, you stayed hit.
Saw him absolutely flatten a pom in a test match over there.
It was huge.
Smashed the shit out of Garry Jack one day. Got sued over it later too.

I wonder how he would fit into todays game.
I remember he was a projectile in defence, would often run up out of the line in order to really confront the ball runner. I think he would force a lot of dropped ball, but he would hate the tackling of today the emphasis on stoping, holding, wrestling.
I also think he would not accept running 10 decoys each game.
Jack got belted so hard it turned two of his kids into a vfl player. No wonder he wants compensation .
