Tough choice because we saw both players at differing stages of their careers.

Gibbs learnt the game really quickly and was pretty much in his peak years for us. Tough as teak and a formidable tackler.

Gidley came to Saints at the back end of his career and was the archetypal wingers centre.

I would pick Gidley and it would have been interesting to see him play here earlier in his career.

He was just sexy ... and a dream.

No he wasn't. He was average in his last year (when he was well past his best), but Gidley was fantastic for us.

Gidley for me too. A fantastic player, under rated by many as above. Great defender and had fantastic skills. Gibbs was tough, but nowhere near as skillful.

Giddley would be my choice, but not by much. He had touches of sheer class, and his vast experience was invaluable to us. I thought at times it was like having a member of the coaching staff on the field.

Who knows, if Scott had continued to play RL, he may well have gone on to gain such experience, but alas, we'll never know.

Gibbs all day long.

Now if we are talking JL..........

On performances in a saints shirt I'd take Gibbs by a country mile but gidley in his prime playing in the NRL was worldclass.

Gibbs defence was worth the gate money alone. He'd cut people in half, very competitive. He didn't get enough credit for his attack as he made a good few breaks every week with his hard running game.

The was a game against wire early in Gibbs league days when he was up against a very very good and very fast jonathan davies. Gibbs kept him quite all day but everytime time he would only just get to Davies but it's the game I knew he would be top league player.

Gidley was a wingers dream. The perfect centre for any winger. He made his wingers look good. He had the winners attitude as well. Great hands, good footwork, great defence but we didn't see the fast gidley, he'd lost a good yard of pace before he came to saints.

So I'd take Gibbs over gidley from time playing at saints but I'd take gidley over Gibbs when both in there prime.

Two very good players for saints.
