Tex Evans
Arthur Bradshaw

Steve Blakeley (Without a doubt, his points scoring record was second to none and who can ever forget that performance against Wigan in the famous 1996 CC win)

Paul Forber (Hard as they come, used to put the fear of god into the other team)

Andy Burgess (Local lad who put 110% in every time he took the field)

Nathan McAvoy (First time around was immense, scored trys for fun)

Sean Rutgerson (Not around that long, but a really nice bloke and one hell of a player even after having his head taken off he'd still run into a brick wall)

Mark Lee (Quality at either 9 or 7, best tatical kicking game of any Salford player I can remember)

Steve Kerry (My favourite player in the first season I can really remember)

Tex evans (Always got over the whitewash)

Malc Alker (Always been 100% player)

Scott Martin (Pitbull, strong as an ox)

Steve Blakeley is a player that I never really took to, yes in his first few years he looked the real deal and we were calling for him to get a GB call up but after a while he became disinterested for mine.

As for classing him along with Risman and Watkins Pfff c'mon Bobby he may have scored plenty of points, so much so he's currently our 3 top point scorer ever, but c'mon Risman is an Rugby League hall of famer who played 17 times for GB, captaining an ashes tour (touring 3 times) and 18 times for Wales, won 4 Championships, a Challenge Cup, 4 Lancashire Cups, 5 Lancashire League titles and appeared in countless other finals and Watkins (Or the King as he’s often referred) we I need add nothing.

However each to their own I suppose.

Anyway as for my list I'm getting there only 19 more years of players to go through the problem is I'm already up to 29

One thing is for sure,


Is number one!

phil ford and gibbo one had a great side step the other just went where his legs took him.

A few offf the top of my head
Tex Evans
Richard Webster
David Young
Paul Forber
Mark Lee
Gibbo
And a couple for Tigerus Red
Big Phil
Chris Borgese( Both have made his first couple of seasons attending the Willows quite special) Ta very much chaps

Most of my favourites have already been mentioned so to avoid repetition I'll mention 3 players who haven't. David Stephenson & Ged Byrne were both top quality players in pretty poor Salford sides who were an absolute joy to watch. Sadly for us Wigan became aware of their qualities all too soon.
The third is tinged with sadness, we only got to see him at Salford for one season but Geoff Selby clearly had all the talent required to make it to the very top in the game. It was a pleasure to watch him in the red shirt & a genuine tragedy when he passed away so young.

Another good player that was at are club but sadly passed away now was geof selby he was a class act as well.

All the above plus the one and only Charlie Bott.

I became hooked in the 97 season here are my pick of the bunch
1) Fata Sini
2) Gary Broadbent
3) Sam Panapa
4) Steve Blakely
5)Malcolm Alker (My All time favourite!)
6)John Cartwright
7)Kris Tassell
Paul Carige
9) Cliff beverley
10) David Hulme
11) Darren Rogers
12) Kevin Bhudda Mcguiness
13) Stuart Littler
14) Stefan Ratchford
15)Luke Adamson
16) Nathan Mcavoy (first time around)
17)Mark Lee
18) John Wilshere

The first time he has been mentioned on this thread. Will always be one of my favourite ever Salford players.

The players listed abouve have reminded me of the garbage I used to watch week-in, week-out.
