If you take lyon points from kicks out of the equation how do they compare in space and providing scoring opertunities for their wing men

No he's not. Gidley at Saints is the better comparison.

Lyon in 2005
20 tries
24 assists

Moon in 2014
6 tries
15 assists

Gidley in 2008
8 tries
22 assists

Tomkins in 2012


28 tries
33 assists

Lyon - easily. Moon is still a class player though, very underrated.

I like Moon but he's way short of Gidley and absolutely nowhere near Lyon!

Lyon is the best centre of the SL era imo, yes only 2 years but he was all class.

Moon is a very good SL player but not in the World Class category.

Lyon is one of the best players to have graced the superleague. Moon is a quality centre but he's not in Lyon's bracket.

There are several centres who have played for Leeds in the SL era who are arguably better than Moon, but behind Lyon: Godden, Blackmore, Carroll, Senior, Watkins... He's a better centre than Brett Delaney, Clinton Toopi, Chris McKenna and Chev Walker though

Lyon could also play halfback. He was all class in everything he did. But Moon is a very good play, hence why he's in my fantasy team.

Boo (Saints lost)
Yeah (Moon scored and Hardacker)

Keith Senior at his best was easily as good as Lyon. Paul Newlove was also superb at his peak.
