Good player but surely not?


Golden boot winner.

He’s 33 and still the best winger in SL

Which is why he always finishes top of the try scorers list.


Oh! Wait a minute...

The fact that Makinson plays for St. Helens.

It’s between Makinson and Ritson for me.

I think not too long ago they were regarded as simply finishers.

They obviously brought something to the table but there influence was generally at the attacking end of the spectrum.

I think Jerry, Hall and TM probably lead the way in changing that in SL along with their coaches which has seen them being crucial to exit sets but also being expected to do the finishing too.

I think wingers stock has risen significantly in regards their role in the team in the last decade, and rightly so.



Longer than you think. I remember chatting about Carney and Dallas and discussing how much yardage work they do and how they started the sets for us. That’s probably 20 years ago.

Fair point.

Go back further to when Robinson and Offiah used to take the ball in from their own twenty on a regular basis.

With the corner flags in play Makinson would be no more than an above average player.






All the good music has already been written by people with wigs and stuff.

In an era when they would get a lot more 'special attention' than defenders would get away with now.
