I'm unsure whether to go with Gill or Hopkins

2 completely different backrowers, both great to watch.






Mac out!

Both great, but Steelo got to be in the mix.

Haumono and Purdham were great, as was Billy Peden, but for me Jimmy Dymock was different class.

Impossible question and I only go back to 1996 I loved Humana, purdham and Hopkins were ever present and committed. Has to be Retchless for me if I am forced to chose one

We have had some great forwards, and we’ve not seen anyone approaching Hoppo since he retired. Have to say though - I loved Peter Gill and Steeeele but it has to be Jim Dymock

First game I ever saw in the flesh Steele Retchless was completely dominant - have seen some good forwards since but none to match him.

He could certainly kick goals from out wide!
