The Ghost is an easy choice for me. Close between Sprogger and Kearney, Sprogger just shades it but Kearney has time.

Keith Mumby was, of course, the greatest fullback ever, in the world, if you want your fullback to be your last line of defence. I've never seen anything even close to how good he was. He was also deceptively good at joining the line and was often underrated on attack. But those tackles, and that instinctive positioning. We will never see the like again.

Withers was very sound and reliable as a defensive F/B but his unerring attacking instinct and ghosting in for tries, often crucial ones in big games, was a treat to watch. So he gets my No. 1 vote for Bulls f/bs.

Spruce best out and out full back, Withers was a utility man that excelled anywhere, but Spruce was the best FB without a doubt for me.

The more he talked of his honour,the faster we counted our spoons.:



Keith Mumby was the best--end of.Also as far as attacking went,Keith scored many length of the field tries after breaking the first line of defence.He had deceptive pace and power.He wasn't a bad goal kicker eithericon_smile.gifWatson,John Woods(everyone forgets what a good player he actually was),Terry Price also in the "northern era" weren't half bad.

As far as BULLS go it would have to be Spruce as Withers played wing,centre etc.

Only one Keith Mumby though.

Withers just for me. His organisation of our defensive line, general reading of the game gave him a slight edge.

Don't think i'm biased... ...i'm just very narrow minded!!!!!!!:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_28029.jpg



The poll has ended and you have chosen....

... MICHAEL WITHERS!!!

Stuart Spruce finished runner up and as a result will go forward the final poll to find the super subs to back up our starting XIII.
