So no one before 1980 is eligible if they don't have 4 other criteria? Dumb criteria.

Ridiculous. Makes no sense. How many before 1980 played 100 games? As they didn’t win a GF this means only those over 100 qualify

Andrew Neave

I see your Andrew Neave and raise you a Dave Boughton.

Dave Boughton.

the Raiders wanted him when they were at their height. He rejected them.
I've heard why, probably not best to post it as ears have rumours, it was a long time ago and they haven't won a comp since.

who from those eras deserves a shout?

I agree how about the players pre 1980.
Also why are coaches not eligible? Are they not as integral as a player

 

[Stake Removed]

who from those eras deserves a shout?

I think we all would agree Ken Maddison,
Rothmans medal winner
Australian rep
NSW player which is equivalent to state of origin
He played 95 games I am hoping the club includes Amco and wills cup

I am hoping the club is looking at players of this vintage as for younger fans this would be of interest.

Other players like
Steve Kneen
Kurt Sorensen
How about Ron Turner

I could probably have a stab at it.
I actually loved Dave Boughton and Andrew Neave back in the day.

The criteria doesn't allow for anyone between 1967 and 1980 to qualify. It's also counter logical. Tommy Bishop should be there and is, but he also shouldn't there because he doesn't meet 3 of the criteria! He only played 75 games, no SOO, no major awards.

The criteria are close minded and ageist.

I think Terry Hughes is pretty famous being the first man ever to win the Rothmans Medal.

There shouldn’t be criteria as specific as this. It’s dumb.

Ron Turner how first Australian rep.

Prior to 1980 why don't they said if played for NSW or Qld it's no different to origin
