WHICH CURRENT NRL COACH WAS THE BETTER PLAYER?

[Kris_man]

people have voted for Tim Sheens and Nathan Brown :lol: :lol: :lol: funy sh*t. it's Ricky Stuart by the length of his ego.

 

[Tidus_Raider]

Stuart for sure. He was a great player for his state and country.

 

[gregstar]

actually tough because i seem to be like most people & automatically think of halfbacks but there are people on that list who were damn good players!

John Lang was the second best hooker I have ever seen play, after Steve Walters. He was an extraordinary player and those who say "we never saw the best of him" are those who were not in Brisbane seeing him play every week, when the Brisbane competition was extremely strong. The year Lang went to the Roosters, Sydney people suddenly woke up and realised what an incredible player he was. He played for Qld, NSW and Australia all in the same year.

Ricky Stuart is one of the best players I've ever seen play the game.

John Lang for mine. He only ever played in Brisbane didn't he?

He played one season with the Roosters and then went back to Brisbane - a very good player and we never saw the best of him

My point was "we" does not refer to everyone in this forum. "We" also DID see the best of him.

Tim Sheens held the club record for most first grade appearances for Penrith for quite a few years - something like 160-odd. He was a solid second rower, but not flashy - he was never going to play rep footy.

But he was a great club man.

out of them, ive only ever seen Ricky Stuart Nathan Brown and Des Hasler play

so id go with Stuart

As much as I hate to say this... Sticky Ruart by a country mile.

If the question had of read.....'assistant coach or manager' then Brad Clyde would be right in the running with John Cartwright in the minors.

Michael Hagan represented QLD 5 times and won a couple of premierships in the 80's before been a great player for the knights in his later years. Why is he not on the list, especially seeing he is a better player then some on it.

I put him on it but i think it only takes 10 options.

He would be my 3rd choice.

Matthew Elliott :|

 

[realredhillboy]

does anybody know who bennett played for in brisbane?
ive got a feeling its either brothers or norths

 

[drake]

Stuart by a mile.
I'd love to say Brown and Elliott (Dragons boys) but reality is Stuart was a dominating and highly skilled player.
An arrogant prick, but an awesome halfback.

 

[God-King Dean]

You guys are drunk. Kemp for sure.








Did he play?

 

[Kris_man]

haha, nice one immortal. i'm sure i've got at least one Tony Kemp footy card playing for the Knights - am i thinking of the right guy?

 

[Ferocious Dogs]

Stuart by a mile.
