graham wynn? he may have played on for too long but from '79 to '85 he was sensational - aus & nsw rep too don't forget!
Osbourne - had discipline problems, but was a damn fine prop when on song
steve linnane - rookie of the year in '85 & season's leading try scorer.
peter gill was not a hooker - he was a lock & second rower
And Djura was a 5/8

Got to agree 100% whatever brain dead moron put Wynn on that list knows sweet FA about the Dragons or rugby league for that matter.

Seemingly I am harsh with the Stanley brothers, but Chase should never been regained following his failed Melbourne foray, and Kyle's career was stifled by injury too.

As for the others you've mentioned, Hookey failed to each any great heights, Best's defensive liabilities are reminiscent of MacDonald, and Latimore has been through more clubs than Tiger Woods.
Agree with every name on your list
Plus that Canberra winger a few years back, must get his name

Tony Smith has to be in this team. Only player I’ve ever known to draw boos from the crowd when his brother Brian would enevitably have him replace someone usually in the second half.

There’s no harm in reinvigorating debate during the off season. At least a thread such as this offers meaningful conversations...unlike your posts.
Then why do you waste so much time, effort & clear frustration on my posts?

One could ask the same question to yourself.
What a silly concept.

If I didn’t spend time and effort on my own posts, I’d just be posting up the first random thing that pops into my head, that would probably have no relevance to anyone.


That’s what Twitter is for.
