phil ford and gibbo one had a great side step the other just went where his legs took him.

I've got a highlights video where Hulme breaks through the (Huddersfield?) defense, jinks one way then the other before pointing MacAvoy where he wants him then slipping the pass to him between the fullback and winger when they come to tackle him. His legs may have been going when he came to Salford but class like that never fades.

Angry Hancock was one of those players you wished had come a bit earlier in his career, he had some outstanding performances and i'll never forget when he trampled Senior in at Headingley but he wasn't fit often enough to go down as one of the best.

Teflon Tex is by far my favorite. Gibbo, Sini, Forber, Eccles, Young, Naylor (1st time), Broadbent, Edwards, Lee, Baynes, Blakeley, Highton, Hadley, Hansen are all up there.

Both surrounded by world class players of their time which allowed them to show their talents and reach the finals and achieve their personal goals, Blakeley unfortualty wasnt surrounded by the same class though his salford career so points unfortuatley didnt make big prizes in the end.

I take the point about being a bit "cant be d" sometimes but when he could be d he was in a different time zone to everyone else.

Kevin Mcguinness, Absolutely magic.

Zenith, I can't agree. Steve Blakely was occasionally good. Never top quality, never international class. I think he stood out because we not have the best of luck with half-backs, until recently. Still, he was one of the best players we had at the club in the 1990s.

Have to admit that he was never a favourite. There was something about his attitude I didn't like - even before he chased the 'dream' with our scouse friends at Wilderspool.
