Both are legends of the game. Schoey had more stand out games against the Aussies is what I mean plus Hanley was playing in a more dominant team

| Schoey in his prime was superb but Ellery was a different beast.
Think i saw every game both played for Leeds and to watch Ellery week in week out was very special and lets not forget he was in his 30s and past his best when we got him and he was still the best player ive seen in a Leeds shirt. So jealous of Wigan fans who got to watch him week in and out in his prime.
To say Schoey was better in Australia than Ellery isnt true. Hanley was magnificent for Balmain.
Im not knocking Schoey, i loved him, hes a Hall of Famer all day long and was a truly brilliant player and should still be idolised at Headingley.

If only Schoey had Ellery’s dedication. His performance in the second test against Australia (10-33) is inforgettable

| Quote: Pieman "
I would not be able to separate them o be honesty. Hanley the freakish talent and athlete who trained hard and was methodical in his preservation. Schofield the sheer natural footballer with vision and pure instinct. One played in a fairly dominant side , one carried a poor side.
Why do we have to choose both greats in same era because th different players.

Great post. When I hear people bag Schoey around the ground, it makes me laugh. Some people really don’t have a clue.

They bag Schofield because of his own actions, brought on by him. I doubt any really think he was anything other than a great player in his day.
