First accept sadness. Realise that without losing 70% of the time, winning wouldn't be such a relief.:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_32990.jpg |

Keiron O'Loughlin didn't do a bad job for us many years ago, and how can we forget Peter Williams?

Obviously higher up your list than Hancock because at least you remembered Fell.

| I'll be watching my VHS copy too, if only to see us beat the mighty Wigan with Alker pulling the strings at scrum half  . And that was some Wigan team...
Have to add my weight to the 'Hancock was class' cause. Sure, it would have been great to get him 5 years sooner, but he clearly still had it upstairs. Remember him turning a full back inside out and managing to go over from about 60 metres out. Took him about 10 minutes to walk back for the restart, mind... |

| Are we talking about the Michael Hancock who represented Queensland 14 times and was a 13 time Kangaroo ?
The person who rubbished him clearly has been on happy hour all day, Michael Hancock was quality and I for one was privileged to watch him in a Salford City Reds shirt.
Yes he came at the end of his career but after winning FIVE NRL grand finals with the Broncos and held the Broncos club record for most career tries with a mere 120.  |

If you read my original post regarding Hancock I said he was a class act "LEGEND" but I never saw that here, Sorry
I suggest you look the word class or LEGEND up.

Hancock was a fantastic winger one of the best ever, but wouldn't of made the Aussie national team whilst playing for Salford, where as Garry Jack at Salford would of. Jack was the best signing we ever made Hancock wasn't...

What are so many of us to disagree with you?
I agree we never saw the player as when he was at his best but he still played well and better than many he faced.

Got to be honest I was disappoined with Garry Jack because I felt he was a marked man in an average team. For me despite the odd calamity I thought Steve Gibson was far more dangerous with ball in hand and probably cost the club less than half of what they paid Jack. |

Fair comment.....my opinion differs, I just think there's been far to many 30 odd year olds what have signed for us and not been successful acquisitions especially in the three quarters with the exception of Jack...... |

Still say that Patten was the best attacking full back I've seen at the club, know many don't agree but think of of all the players who won't starting next season he will be the one most missed.
Getting sidetracked though, Gleeson if he keeps his nose clean will be an asset I just have serious doubts he will be able to do that and that as a result Long might have a bit of a relapse.
Think the club would have been better trying to get player for Moon rather than money, not sure how that would have worked with the new owners in the offing but would have seemed like a much better option for the club. |

Sorry I was thinking more about players from the past. As for Patten I couldn't disagree but I thought his second season was a big improvement on his first. |

Pattens defence and positional play puts him way down the list for me....
The way he linked in the attacking line was fantastic no doubt |
