all gardner does is walk 1 cm and plonk the ball down from ridiculously good play by either gidley or before him lyon.

thats what wingers get paid to do.
for me over the last few wks longy has played shocking and looks tired i would like to see him dropped and bring in young eastmond.

If we are talking only gaffes, I'd still pick Gardner over Offiah....and Hunte for that matter.

Surely you are confusing some great, elusive runners with proper all round wingers?

I'd have Hunte over Gardner any day

Me too. Hunte was most complete British winger i have seen.
He had pace size, agility, could tackle, could pass and field a high ball.

infact he was good enough to play fullback and centre.

Gardner is the archetypal modern winger, 6ft 2in, 15 stone, reasonably quick, decent returner of football, solid tackler and solid under the high ball.

If Hunte was playing now he'd be on massive wedge. In the era of the SC the emphasis seems to be on Centres over wingers. There isn't 1 class winger in superleague

To be fair Wingers have always only been as good as their centres.

Its why if you look at the Aussies they have awesome centres but the wingers are in the main nothing special excitement wise.

And also the reason that if a good one turns up, he can rip up the opposition Vianakolo (or however you spell it) was a good example here (not so much in defense).

Oohh

Boston, Vollenhoven, Bevan (x2), Gill, Wright,.

Great wingers didn't always need great centres.

Name 2 from the last 15 yrs
