It's certainly been a decent debate

Fantastic Mr Fox

Edwards > Schofield.

BY A COUNTRY MILE.

ABSOULUTE CLASSIC!!!

it looks as if the poll is starting to make sense, another one should be sinfield or long!?!?!

The weight of stated opinion (especially from non-Wigan/Leeds fans) is massively in favour of Schofield.

The poll itself only makes sense inasmuch as it probably reflects the votes of a high number of Wigan fans who can't or won't back up their vote with any substantial argument.

I see deluded Wigan fans are trying to re-writing history again.

You would have thought it is bad enough that they have named their fan club after an Iron Age tribe governed from Yorkshire (although it is nice that they are accepting the proper way of things).

Shaun Edwards was just a dirty version of Kevin Sinfield today - a good profesional at flat track bully domestic level but only looked ok as an international. Schofield was more of a Sam Tomkins in possessing that individual brilliance that made the Aussies take note.

As for 'fat Gary', he may be a complete tool these days but I'd rather go for a few ales with the likes of him and Lee Crooks than boring old panface and Shaun Edwards who both sold their souls to the darkside Garry Schofield is the epitomy of what RL stands for - getting tanked up, criticising the game's administration and star players at every opportunity, and standing up for how great he was in the good old days of yore

come on a big city like leeds doesn't have more fans than a small town like wigan? next you will be telling me wigan are the most famous rugby league club in the world and this board will be removed by a mass protest!

i am not say all but i am sure many of them still have a sour taste of wigans success and its well known people favour the underdog so maybe their opinions are tainted just as much as leeds and wigans fans opinion? evidence to show the sour feelings are still alive and kicking to this day is the constant reminder that wigan was the only full time team back then even if it is not true.

no i can own up to my bias on situations on like this, only thing i am not biased on is the england team. but the fact is one was a benji marshal of their time and the other is cooper cronk both great players but one is flashier than the other but it would be hard to argue marshall is better than cronk just like this. people are actually trying to say edwards was a poor player on this thread and its just laughable.

garry schofield is what is wrong with rugby league in this country bitter and never see the bigger picture.

I for one am not arguing that Edwards was a bad player. I think he was one of the best in the domestic game. Schofield however was exceptional in any competition. End of.

The argument is not about attitude, it's about playing ability. Had the poll said 'who came out better and who came out bitter' I and any other sane person would favour Edwards. Having said that to characterise Schofield so definitively as 'what is wrong with rugby league' is in itself to miss 'the bigger picture'

i was replying to an early post with out qouting sorry, anything postive happens in the game and he turns it into negativity thats what i was trying to say.

ability and who is the better player is totally different, tim smith for example has all the ability but paul deacon was a better player. schofield was flashier than edwards no doubt about it could step anybody but edwards made wigan tick and made them very successful. same roles benji and cronk for their teams.

this topic will keep going round in circles as its only peoples opinions and no way for anyway to prove it so i will agree to disagree.
