I'm not sure about Mullins as #1 for Canberra. He played a fair bit in #3. I'd go back to Belcher for #1 Raider maybe.

Raiders #46 - Paul Osborne (1994 GF)

 

[Bulldog Force]

Bulldogs 6 - Lamb
Bulldogs 7 - Mortimer
Broncos 1 - Lockyer (IMO)
Raiders 6 - Daley
Raiders 7 - Stuart

As a Parra Fan growing up watching footy from the late 90's through the 00's there was one common thing-

11 Hindmarsh

 

[Walt Flanigan]

I think the most famous number worn by a Raider would be Big Mal's number 3. We would probably retire it if we could.

Cliffy Lyons - 6
Russell Fairfax - 1
Clive Churchill - 1
Bob Fulton - 7

There are so many.

Fulton was a centre or 5/8.

Can't believe Sterling hasn't been mentioned for the Eels 7. How many articles have we seen over the years talking about all the failed halves they have had since.

 

[The Mad Hatter]

Ray Price - 8.
