Welcome to the NEW RLFANS.COM. After twenty-five years of service, the old site expired over the last few days. To maintain service we have had no option but to make an early switch to the new site which was in development/testing. Some elements of the new site are unfinished, such as; page numbering and quotations. We will fix these minor issues as soon as we can, please bear with us.

True that he signed for us while we were in SL...not sure if that still counts though
.
He was a class act. Hardly looked like he broke sweat with his languid style (also playing at a lower level) but still got 10 trys in 9 games and you could see him running the game from full back. Top bloke too by all counts.
Wellens and Radlinski were stand out players of the SL. Trouble is the SL was no where near the standard of the NRL in that era. They were average in comparison to the world best players.
Wellens. Solid as a rock, good positional sense in both defence and attack. If he had a decent turn of pace, he could have been one of GB's best ever.
The fundamental flaw with the debate, which has already been identified, is the role of fullback has been turned on its head. The role is now the first lines of attack, not the last line of defence.
