Having analysed all the SL dream teams I've come up with this team of the decade based on the number of times players have been selected in the dream team, using my own judgement/bias where players have the same number of selections.
1. Radlinski
2 Vainikolo
3. Senior
4. Lyon
5. Donald
6. McGuire
7. Burrow
8. Fielden
9. Cunningham
10 O'Connor
11 Peacock
12 Farrell*
13 Sinfield
14 Lam
15 Ellis**
16 Lautiti
17 Anderson

*Bit of licence here because he was never selected in the second row but this is where he made his international debut & I think he's worth a place.
** To cover forwards & backs.

I think that's a pretty decent team

I reckon most supporters of any team other than Leeds would question the inclusion of 3 or 4 players in that selection

I'd consider swapping Donald for Vaikona, Harris for Radlinski, Long for Burrow, and Scully P for Sinfield but its all very debatable

Did Harris display his best form post-2000?

"Well, I think in Rugby League if you head butt someone there's normally some repercusions":d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_25511.jpg



1. Wellens
2 Vainikolo
3. Senior
4. Pryce
5. Albert
6. McGuire
7. Long
8. Fielden
9. Cunningham
10 Vagana
11 Peacock
12 Gilmour
13 Sinfield
14 Sculthorpe
15 Stacey Jones
16 Lauititi
17 Anderson

I deliberately left out Farrell, he was not the player post 2000 he was before, and his "sympathy" MOS award was a complete joke. I went for guys like Vagana, Pryce and Gilmour because they have been players who have contributed consistantly high levels of performance across the entire decade.

9 grand finals and 4 winners rings (not to mention the three CC winners medals with Saints) a Harry Sunderland and Lance Todd award would suggest you don't know what you're talking about.

Being on the pitch in the grand final and actually producing a 'high level of performance' are totally different things.

I.e. the last 3 Grand Finals how did Leon play?

He's hardly consistent on the big stage is he.

Swap Leon Pryce for Jamie Lyon and I'd go with more or less same as you have icon_smile.gif

For some reason I have an urge to swap Albert for Brett Dallas.
