I started watching in 1989 and only really got one season before injuries started taking their toll on him. I think I missed the best days of Gregory's career.

I disliked Fozzard immensely...even when he played for us, due to that ridiculous arm guard and the fact that his action was always bordering on illegal IMO. He always, always led with elbow/robot arm and without that would've been completely ineffective.

There's a brilliant interview on the BBC website (podcast) with Jiffy detailing his career with a lot about his time at Wilderspool for anyone who hasn't heard it.

No short termers (old Aussie off season Blake, Davidson, Roach etc) in mine
Against my better judgement, I've also picked a pooh house (but he was rather good, I wonder if you can spot him [sizewink[/size)

I've even got my old bugbear of goalkickers covered, by not having 1 awesome one, but 2.
(Briers as another backup, and at a push, Westwood)
Profuse apologies for no John Bevan, my first sporting hero. But you can't leave out a scoring record like Monoghan's, and Drummond was a God

I like the selection of Solomona there lefty, I considered it myself. Thought he didn't merit inclusion on the grounds of overall contribution, compared to guys like Burns or Harrison, but if you pick a team loaded with stars, Solomona would cause carnage.

As for the pooh house, presumably Gleeson, he's down the list for me. He was good, and had an excellent first season, but if you take his other three and a half seasons I thought he was in second gear for us. Sometimes good, but a contributor to the general later Cullen era malaise that when the chips were down, some senior players didn't do enough to turn things around, they just let things drift. I got the impression with Gleeson, that he felt he was better than us, and he should have been still playing in that dominant Saints team with his old mates but was with us as a punishment for getting involved in the betting saga. He just seemed aloof and disengaged. You never got that feeling with Bateman, who would have also been justified in thinking he could have done better than some of the Wire teams he played in.

Also even if you just take contribution on the field, I don't think its clear cut that Gleeson was ahead of say Bridge, King, Kohe-Love, Atkins. Gleeson had a more reliable 'floor' to his standards and had a wider skill set than those guys, although he wasn't as quick. Those guys had longer spells with us and had times when injury or lack of form affected them but they didn't coast in second gear like Gleeson did. If you took the peak 4 year spell from any of those guys and compared it against Gleeson's spell I would take them.

I watched the Warrington side predominantly from the late 40's to the end of the 50's and a couple of players not mentioned to date would certainly be in contention for the 17. One of my favourite scrum halves Gerry Helme and a goal kicking, ball playing second rower Harry Bath.
