NRL Hall of Fame 2024 + 14th Immortal

[Chins get the wins]

The judges are going to consider things like Rep career and individual awards and Maloney doesn't stack up in that department.

2 bums who couldn't tackle

Anyone who has JT ahead of Langer is watching a different sport than I am

Does it matter? Cronk was a much better half than either of them. And I don’t hear anyone calling for him to be an immortal.

 

[Apey]

Cronk>Thurston.

I'd take Cronk in a heartbeat over Thurston to slot into the current Knights team, but I guess it kind of depends what your team needs.

Cronk was more reliable and could control a game better but Thurston could create points easier.

Thurston the ideal 6 then.

Surprised people aren't calling for Ribot?

Which 4 or more legitate premiership winners are not in the Hall of Fame?

Those guys should be added next

 

[Rising from the Ashes]

Immortal is abit of a joke after the last intake.. Mal a immortal? C'mon now.. that's not the best of the best

They are going to ruin that concept by just adding everyone. It should just be 2 from each era maximum.

 

[AlwaysGreen]

It's a flawed concept fullstop

 

[siv]

It's a flawed concept fullstop

There are 2 concepts here

Hall of Fame which looks to have good mix, but needs to address a few gaps caused by trying to pick 100 players in 100 years

Its the immortals concept that is where the issue lies

 

[Chins get the wins]

It's a perfect concept in comparison to how the Dally M is voted on.....

 

[The Mad Hatter]

The Immortal concept has been flawed since 1981, and was for a magazine to sell port.

Hall of Fame should be the ultimate and only thing imho.

It’s ridiculous and now we’re stuck with a system that takes a bit shine off hall of fame honours. Maybe the immortal tag should be awarded posthumously?

It’s something we’re stuck with now.

But I’d rather go in to a museum and read about each club, and all their players and appreciate their efforts and contributions, and gawk at memorabilia, ephemera and playing gear… then walk in to a Hall of Fame that commends the best of the best.

Raper, Coote, Price, Pearce, Clyde…

Billy Smith, Tommy, Sterlo, Turvey, Stuart, Langer, Johns, Kimmorley, Thurston, Cronk…

A full on proper museum with everything covered from 1908 to now and a HOF.

But that’s just me.

Legend has it that when the Winfield Cup came to Penrith in 1991 it was used as a doorstopper in the Panthers HQ.

I like the museum idea. I'd take it out of the clubs hands. Be it the SCG (If we don't have it already) or SFS.

The MCG in Melbourne does a pretty decent job. When I visited 10 or so years ago it was pretty good.

I guess they could start by re openning the NRL Muesum to the public
