Hi.
My first response here and I thought what better than to comment on the best junior I have seen.
Ive been a fan since 1964 and seen most of those mentioned earlier. All great players for sure.
I remember fondly an Under 23 (maybe 21) team coached by Gary Pethebridge as THE best footy team I have ever seen. Their backline movements were something to behold. Amongst many exceptional players in that team, (sorry I dont remember too many other than Jason Nicol) the best, in my opinion, by the length of the straight going away was Glen Liddiard. Generally he played full back and trust me, he was worth the price of admission alone. The great pity was that he never progressed as he should eventually going to Penrith and getting caught up in the Ben Alexander accident and controversy. I always thought that a coach like Jack Gibson would have turned him into an all time great.
I once saw Glen kick for touch and actually kick the ball over the Cronin stand. Ive never seen that done before and since. His acceleration was amazing.
Hi to everyone and Go Parra tonight.
Cheers
