agree with most of that. think Walker and Lowrie a bit lucky, think walker only played 1 season with us? was grear for Balmain previously. would have Laffranchi there for sure and probably Galloway/Gibbs over those two and O'Neil. you could nearly have Twal and Matterson there already IMO, which says more about the players we've had for the last 20 years then their ability

personally think our fans greatly over rate Richards, I'd have Lote over him, his 2010 was amazing

Shouldn't the team of the decade be only players from 2010-2019. Otherwise it is an all time team or 20 year team

They’d probably get the job done!!!

Players I would’ve like to have seen more of:

Simon Dwyer

The beauty of that 2005 side is that bar Three maybe four top liners they were just a good TEAM!

The spine is still one of the best that’s ever won a comp. Everyone just did their job that year.

The rest of the team weren't that good. Richards was at his peak and great. Whatuira was a solid centre in form. The spine was though unreal. Those 4 playing great footy and they were too good.

Its an interesting comment that I dont disagree with.
2017: Smith, Cronk, Munster and Slater
1994: Walters, Stuart, Daley and Mullins
..are the benchmarks for mine but our quadrant were very good that year.
