No one is ever going to agree on the best. But if a vote was to be done he'd be up there no doubt within the top 3. As far as consistency goes I can't rate anyone higher. Out of interest Jono, who would you rate as your top 5 backrowers of this decade?

I can't argue with anything you said there. Picking a top 5 is extremely difficult but more to the point I'd take a Gorden Tallis or Ben Kennedy over Nathan Hindmarsh. That's just my opinion. Other standouts were Craig Fitzgibbon, Steve Menzies, Steve Simpson, Michael Crocker etc...

Played an amazing game today... Easy was to remove Kidley from the origin team, just hand him a jersey and place the C next to his name.

Most overrated player of all time. An average second rower who has zero attacking spark and has somehow developed a cult following.

An absolute hack.

Another attention seeking thread by Loudstrat.... Hindy was great, best second rower of this decade would be agreed upon by most. But can this thread be moved to the Parra forum before skeepe sees it?

I wouldn't even have him in my top 3 of the last decade. Kennedy, Menzies and Tallis all beat him IMO.

Brilliant defensive player, but he's lost alot in attack in the 2nd half of his career.

I admitt never seen hindmarsh throw so many passes as he did last night , must be close to a record.

only a grub like yourself would hold that opinion on a man who's achieved so much in the game on and off the field...

Yes it did. All that does is confirm the fact you're an attention seeker though.
Stick to the topic f*cktard - stop seeking attention.

I'll stand by the best second rower - at this point in his career I believe he's done more work than any player before him. Agreed?

Skeepe, are you Ian Hindmarsh?

who cares about the flops - it boosts his dream team points

:lol: Yes!. Although last night Stagg = Hindy in the fantasy points stakes. If you want an uderrated player - David Stagg.

Unfortunately Hindmarsh no longer has the attacking flair that he ahd in years gone by.

You only have to look at how bad Parra suck without Hindy to know how good he is.

In his whole time at the Eels, Hindymarsh has only missed the finals twice.

One of the best clean-up players in the game, but thats about it. As has been said, he's the master of a third man tackle, and has little to offer in attack.

I'd rate Tallis, Kennedy, SBW, Watmough and Mason as all superior second rowers who have played in the past decade.
