Shonny proved to be the classiest centre we've had, in my eyes. Easy top selection.

I think that Keith Lulia has bundles of potential and a lot of class, but the only reason I can't put him in is because of the fact he's only been here a while and has yet to fully prove himself in the way others did, but I feel a bit guilty about it.

BUT ... the other two for me just have to be the Peacock and the Penguin.

Hape without a doubt, Matt Calland was pretty unstoppable, remember him using a few opposition centres as doormats, defence was awesome too, so he'd get my vote, Scott Naylor 3rd.

We've had far more quality in the centres overall than on the wing or at full back.

When you compare our worst wingers (lets say Nick Zisti and Tame Tupou for instance) and compare them to some of the weaker centres (Justin Brooker, James Evans, Brandon Costin etc) I think we've been lucky that TV and Les were with us for so long!!!

Hape - absolute class, unstoppable. Both in attack and defence. 2003 Cup Final was a good game for him

Naylor - the best defensive centre we had until Ben Harris came along. Strong as an ox and could break through any line.

Harris - this choice was very hard but after Naylor left we didn't have a good replacement in Kohe-Love. However Harris came along and his defence was magnificent. His attack wasn't as good as Naylor's but it was decent enough.


Have to mention Peacock, Calland, Loughlin, Bradley, Pryce and Lulia as extremely close 3rd choice. Would have picked them all if I could.

Hape my first choice, followed by Lulia and Naylor.

Hape, Peacock and Naylor.

I went Hape - him and Lesley had the best partnership i have ever seen!

Naylor - From what I can remember, he was awesome in defence and attack - And he had big calfs! lol

Lastly - I went Bradley

this. exactly this.

Hape let him self down for me the way he sulked in early 2008 and then engineered his move to union left a bad taste with his old colleagues.

Jape
Keith
Naylor

In that order

Hape is a clear winner, but Nero is well under-rated on here even though he was one of the few backs that flourished during the felt-tip pen tinted Macca years.


Bring back Neromania

Penguin and Hape.

Gone for Hape and Naylor. There has been some quality in the centres though, looking down the list it almost takes the breath away, with such as Ben Harris, Danny Peacock and 'Penguin' Graeme Bradley. Happy with my choices though.

Quite so. For me Lulia could turn out (nearly )as good as Shontayne. I agonised between Naylor Harris Peacock and Bradley for my 3rd choice and finally plumped for the Penguin. However he was such a distinct character with a definite view on everything, I'm not sure how he would interact with some of the other probable selections for the Dream Team!

A lot of overseas talent on that list, although I always rated Naylor during his prime. A shame you could not retain Atkins and Bridge, as Bradford's loss was definitely Warrington's gain.
