I would expect everybody voting Johns never saw Lewis and are slanted heavily in favour of the player they have seen play
Do another poll of people my age or older with state allegiances aside and you'd get a radically different result
Lewis is so far ahead of everybody in the last 30 years its laughable he should be compared to those mentioned above - well in my world anyway
To those claiming Lewis had no skill ... thats the most ridiculous thing I've ever heard
I suppose its like saying Rod Laver had no power and Roger Federer has loads, so Federer must be better ... yes, thats how intelligent you sound
I don't pretend to be able to intelligently compare players to Fulton, Langlands, Raper, Irvine etc ... but I can compare Lewis and Johns and they are yawning chasms apart
My opinion only
Oink !
Pig I'm 37 and while I agree that Lewis was a genius on the field, Johns has him covered in every single department, most notably workload in attack and defence. Again, only an opinion.
