If it wasn't for QLD sticking with that Melbourne 'Spine', I think both Cronk and Slater would be under serious pressure if you just looked at individual qualities. Daly Cherry-Evans is a much better all round player than Cronk nowadays (I'd say Manly have got the 2 best half backs in the world), and if it wasn't for a lack of real quality centres available to QLD, GI should replace Slater at fullback (and on this years form, Boyd would be better than Slater at fullback - but he's needed on the wing for QLD and Aus).'"
Boyd better than Slater? The worlds gone mad. |

On this years form, without a doubt.
Don't get me wrong, Slater is still a great on his day, but over the course of the full season THIS year, Boyd has been the better individually - Slater benefits greatly from his relationship/understanding with Cronk and Smith, and people see him through Rose tinted glasses because of his past achievements. THIS year, he's not been at his best and IMO has probably been the third or fourth best fullback in the NRL weekly rounds. |

Ferguson may have missed half the season due to being a dunderhead, but he was clearly one of the best performing players in the comp. In his last game, coming back after 6 weeks suspension, he tore the much vaunted Roosters defence a new one all game.
If he didn't go off the rails, he'd be playing for Australia in the World Cup.

Slaters still been better than Boyd, Slater on a bad day is as good as Boyd on one of his better ones.
His support play is still the best in the world, Boyds no where near. |
