Yes,thought I'd be slaughtered for that.
Singapore Steeps would tell you that there's no substitute for class and PW would have been phenomenal in that back line
Gus Risman has to be the ultimate Salford legend. I know we are only selecting players who we have seen play, I never saw Gus play but he is generally held to be one off the all time greats, not just for Salford but in Rugby league
I do remember prior to the 1956 season going to Gus Risemans summer school at the Willows, when he was manager/coach. At the end we had a game of touch rugby in which Gus would play, now I know it was only touch but Gus was awesome he still had very good pace, he would of been about 50 years old then. the mind boggles what he was like in his prime.
And yes I can say it, I played in the same team as Gus Riseman
Quotelou kate="lou kate"Peter Williams was a good centre but lacked pace.

That's dead right but Maurice Richards would have scored far more tries.
Hesketh had pace and strength but didn't pass well to his left which is a downside for a left centre ! Tremendous player though
