Trent Barrett was for us what Rangi Chase currently is for Castleford - a one man team.

Adrian Lam however is the best halfback I've seen play for Wigan in the Super League era.

I'd have to say Jason Smith for us. The guy was pure class.

David Solomona(wakey version) absolute class, what could he have done if fit andin shape?
Jamie Lyon
Michael Monohagan

Mark McLinden - not just great on the field but a tireless worker off it. Sad he went back home without receiving his due plaudits.

Didn't the majority of the team Barrett played with go on to win the competition in 2010? How were they not a good SL team?

In 2008 these players played for us
Mathers (24 apps)
Calderwood (20)
Goulding (21 apps at centre, played as a winger in 2010)
Barrett (27)
Higham (33)
Bailey (26, even though he played in 2010, he didnt play after farrell came into the first team)
Colbon (31)
Phelps (15)
O'Carroll (24)

those players were replaced by players such as:
Gleeson
Sam Tomkins
Riddell
Prescott
McIlorum
Deacon
Mossop
Farrell

In addition to players like Hansen and Joel Tomkins coming of age.

So I would certainly not say Barrett was playing in a strong team. The biggest difference of all turned out to be the coaching set up. Madge and Wane worked wonders with what they had, and made most of the players what they are today. whilst under Noble the players were not making the most of what they had.

Lyon
Fairleigh
Craig Smith
Barrett
Richards
Furner
King

Some great players.

Obviously been biased, Vainikolo was immense. A joy to watch on the field.

Lyon was pure class. ripped SL for two years.

Monoghan, Hape, Barrett Menzies. Would be a pretty good "Greatest Exiles team",

For Rovers

Galea
Vella
Newton
Dobson

have been outstanding

In Superleague as a whole i'd say Lyon or Barrett, loved watching them both

Yes, we was told from the horses mouth himself (Noble) during the 2008 World Cup that in 2009 Sam would get at least 10 games.

One of my fave overseas players was Brett Dallas, ran his blood to the water every match and was a very good winger for us and had blistering pace.

I'll put a vote in for Brett Hodgson if i can.......came to Huddersfield and risked his high reputation from Oz to play for an unfancied team that was trying to break into the top 6-8, played out of his skin and won man of steel in his 1st season.....and even at 30 something still managed to land a contract and perform superbly for one of the top teams.

Other than someone that my team benefited from it has to be Pat Richards.

Is it just me, or has Big Les been airbrushed from history in the minds of most contributors?

Not a particularly flashy player so he probably flew under the radar compared with the likes of Lyon, but I would argue Richard Swain was more important to his team than anyone.

Owen Craigie...........
