Explain to me how, I was fair to both sides what points did I miss out to cause such a bias?
Settling the JT versus Joey debate
I did note Johns couldn’t find a secured spot In Origin, however last 3 games Cronk didn’t play NSW won and JT played ordinary.
Settling the JT versus Joey debate
JT was bench player who only played because Steve Price got injured. He wasn’t even in the first choice 17, while Johns made the greatest clutch play off all time in a GF. Yes I know it was during Super League era but you cant say JT’s 2004 premiership was greater then Johns 1997. Okay for argument sake lets take away their first GF wins. in 2001 Johns beat the Eels who were shortest priced favourites in 20 years and highest scoring attacking team, Johns blew them off the park 24-0. While JT had 0 line breaks, try assists, 2 errors, with one error leading to a try. So tell me which GF performance was better?
Settling the JT versus Joey debate
The Eels second row is very strong, Manu Ma’u is a machine be one of the best back rowers last 2 years, Moeroa is going to be the next great lock and Kenny Edwards before his injury was so damaging on the edges, the Eels weakness is their edge defence and in consistency.
NRL 2016 ladder countdown: Parramatta Eels (8th)
RTS is a legit too 5 player in the NRL right now, SKD Perret and Mullins were never like that in their careers.
Sydney Roosters greatest all-time XVII
Merritt was NRL leading try scorer when South won the wooden spoon he played for NSW. The real question is are they better then other all-time teams.
South Sydney Rabbitohs all-time greatest XVII
Nathan Merritt is the clubs leading try scorer and his consistency warrants selection, the halves of Pittard and Grant led them to many premierships, sorry I wasn’t old enough to watch footy before the 60’s and there is not enough footage or video of that time to make them a selection.
South Sydney Rabbitohs all-time greatest XVII
Glen Morrison is most underrated player he has 0 rep games. Morgan played all 3 origins this year.
North Queensland Cowboys greatest XVII
Thanks for pointing that out, I just looked at the NRL website and they have the Warriors 2nd last in alphabetical order, don’t worry I’ll do them next.
North Queensland Cowboys greatest XVII
Well the Sharks have a Better back row then the Broncos Gallen, Miller and Pierce better then Parker, Tallis, Thorn also have better centers Steve Rogers and ET better then Hodges and Renouf. However Brisbane have better halves, props and fullback.
Cronulla Sharks greatest XVII
One absolutely amazing season does indeed get you in this team as a utility of the bench. Barba won the Dally M led the NRL in try’s, line breaks, tackle busts. You have to ignore what he done off the field, can you name a Bulldogs player who had a better year then he did? His 2011 season was great as well.
Canterbury-Bankstown Bulldogs greatest XVII
Yeah I based it on how they preformed at the club. Thurston was primarly a bench player at the Bulldogs therefore he didn’t make the term. If a player has an extraordinary season like Barba in 2012 which was one of the greatest seasons by a Bulldogs player,(won the Dally M Medal), gets him a spot on the bench as a utility.
Canterbury-Bankstown Bulldogs greatest XVII
Tonie Caroll, Shaun Berrigan, Gene Miles and Petro make the bench.
Brisbane Broncos greatest XIII
Point out my “factual errors” , please show me.
