| Ones that stand out to me from Bulls in recent years include Scott Naylor (consistently kept the likes of Newlove, Senior and Renouf quiet). Danny Gartner and Sir Bernard Dwyer. I'm sure I'll add a good few more if I think about it. But you tend not to notice the hard-graft tacklers as much as the attacking players, do you?
For other clubs, a couple that stood out that immediately spring to mind are Steele Retchless (amazing) and Marc Glanville (under-rated by many I often thought).

| Adrian Vowles was an animal, remember him cleaning a fair few out over his time at Cas.
Fritz was a tackling machine.
Tuuta put some good ones on, and could even hit below the head at times.

Larson and Billy Moore were an incredible back row combo. Tackling machines.

i never saw him play play but im a good friend of his nephew,unfortunatly brian hasnt been very well for a few years and is a shadow of his former self,his son darren who played for leeds and fev wasnt a bad player either before turning his back on the game to concentrate on work.

Agree with Naylor, never got the recognition this part of his game deserved.
For me, pre super league has to be Sir Keith Mumby. Super league years I'd go with Stuart Spruce, the way he would just put his body on the line to stop someone at all cost was unreal, as was his reading of the game to be in the right spot to make the hit.
