Don’t overlook Norm Provan.
He played in an era when they weren’t full time professionals, working a job full time and training 3 x a week, perhaps coached by the captain. Not like the support today’s players get.

I can imagine Lewis, Meninga, Johns etc. on an NRL trophy like Provan and Summons. Lockyer was a great player but I can’t see people looking up to him as we would the others.

Meninga and Provan for new Immortals

Meninga the next Immortal: Lockyer, Lewis
