Moving onto the Stand Off position. We've not had that many but we've certainly had some really good ones.
Only one position (obviously) so two votes available for you.

For me, Henry Paul was the best Stand Off to don the Red, Amber and Black.

Me 2 'bullinenemyland' Henry Paul (a.k.a sauce HP) was immense during his time at bradford
ive gone for Mr Pryce in 2nd cos he had/has the guile to play at 6 but unfortunatley wasn't picked there many times, altho when he was he was very good.

The peerless Henry, followed closely by the mercurial Robbie. A privilege to have seen both their careers, and true gentlemen to boot.

Henry was the best player in SL at the time. Robbie was a scrum half.

On some days, yes, but on others, he was a stand off. You might reasonably have thought that he [iought[/ito have always played scrum half, but he didn't. He was a fullback too.

This one was easy. Henry Paul.
It might have been a close thing with Iestyn Harris if he hadn't been basically past his best by the time we got him here.

Henry Paul. One of the greatest stand offs ever to play the game IMO

Yes to me he was what I compare the standard of a stand off to -
pass both ways tick
has a good range and variety with passing tick
can organise tick
has a reasonable all round kicking game tick
has some pace and enjoys taking the line on tick
good foot work tick
No one player is going to live up to all of these by Henry's level but i believe that these are some of the key qualities a 6 should have to be considered good at super league standard.

Henry by a mile. The bloke could do everything. Favourite Bradford player. Doubt I'll see a better all around player for some time playing for us.

Henry was so good I had clean forgot about Harris, which is a bit unfair as he was probably briefly the best back we had produced in a generation. While at Leeds. |
