I was going to say Soward purely for his kicking routine but then I thought of Shaun Timmins who was picked at five eighth because St George didn't have anyone else and bugger me if the talentless gimp didn't end up playing for NSW

My goodness he was awful at five eighth. He was about as useful as Ben Creagh would be in that position - but then he went and wallpapered over the gaping cracks in his game by kicking a winning field goal in Origin game, which almost made me not despise the gimp.

Mind you - he was a decent lock forward - so he goes in the Greg Bird category. But Bird is by far the better five eighth. Hell, John Sutton is a better five eighth than Timmins.

Feleti Mateo without a doubt.

He's played more games at 5'8th this season then Daley, Lewis, Mundine, Walker, Carter and Lamb have played this entire decade.

By the way could someone please star a thread for worst poster of the decade?
Yeah - which century are you talking about? And where's the Vic Hey, Poppa Clay and Smacka Blair options?

But how can you say that

According to Mundine he was better than Fittler and Daly combined and should have been the starter for Origin, Australia, the antipodes and the heavenly XIII in the battle against the evil racists who should piss off out of the country cos they're white and they're bastards.

Errrrrrr.

My mistake. I forgot that the mesiah spoke and annoited the mong as the greatest of all the league players in the history of the world. The rest of the world just missed the memo. Mundine, Money-Dog-Williams, Quade-that's-my-laptop-yoink-cooper may be the only people who'd eat that drivel up... oh ands their craptastic manager...
