Quote: Sumbody "1. Keith Mumby - best defensive player ever, quality goalkicker and excellent in attack
2. Ellery Hanley
3. Gary Schofield
4. Martin Offiah
5. Paul Sculthorpe

'"


Fine player that Keith Mumby was he was not as good in any of those respects as Mick Burke and their careers overlapped.

Quote: Gijou "

David Bolton (from earlier days) and Alan Hardisty were better than Roger the Dodger. Dennis O'Neill left him standing (although only had a couple a years at the top before injury ruined his career). The statistical record demonstrates Hardisty was a better standoff if you don't go for subjectivity.

As to Reilly, whilst not all from the same era I think most people would consider Johnny Whitelely, Rocky Turner and Vince Karalius (who I think you had) as a cut above. Personally, I think there are cases for others eg Doug Laughton, Mick Adams, Andy Farrell and Paul Sculthorpe among others to be considered as much better all round players than Reilly. Apart from one or two hard man moments and the shrugging off of a Salford player at Wembley I never recall Reilly being a threat.

Who played 35 times for Australia...

With the rich history of British Rugby League, it is hard enough picking the top 5 without introducing Australian representatives into the mix (this isn't tennis where we have to borrow other nationalities!)

It's their nature.[/quote:24qn1m99] Little Pepe went to nursery school one day wearing his Widnes hat. His teacher asked him why he was a Widnes fan. He said, “Because my parents are.” His teacher said, “That’s not good. What would you do if your parents were drug dealers and hookers?” He replied, “Well then I would be a Warrington fan.” [i:24qn1m99]There's a Wooly over there, baggy kecks and feathered hair with a 3 star jumper half way up his back, that’s a fecking Wooly back![/i:24qn1m99] [b:24qn1m99]Oooh-to… Oooh-to-be… Oooh-to-be-a… WOOLY![/b:24qn1m99]:24307.jpg

icon_lol.gif - were outstanding players.

Rocky would go closest to pushing Reilly and you may nearly have convinced me there....

But....NAH.

I will stick with my side. Thanks for the comments though.
