No pleasing some people on here, at times. As Paul Youane says, nothing wrong with Ben when he played centre, at all. Fair enough, he wasn't Mal Meninga, but come on...pretty decent centre as I recall, who's obviously improved further when he moved up to pack.

That just about sums up my thoughts on the matter............. although I'd probably include Bobby Fulton alongside JD.

We're all forgetting the legendary Mike Wainwright!

Very difficult just shows how many great players we have been privileged to see but for me.

Les Boyd

Sir Les!

Can you imagine him driving this team on?

Another Wiganer POV (We get everywhere don't we), Parry Gordon for me.

Depends a lot on how you define 'greatest'. Greatest player, even if past his best when playing for Wire? Or the player who reached his greatest heights while playing for Wire, and many shades in between. If the former, in my years watching ( since 1968 ) then Alex Murphy, the greatest rugby player of all time (see T[ihe Guardian[/i - national, not Warrington- Milenium poll ), has to win. John Woods come a close second. If the latter, Les Boyd, John Bevan, Mike Nicholas and Lee Briers can slug it out

I agree, greatest player ever, just not for Wire

an impossible question to answer unless you break it down to longivity,impact or just the most talented to ever wear the primrose and blue,

longivity-mike gregory
impact-les boyd
talent-allan langer

this is all in my lifetime of watching the wire which started in the 70's but i could fill two pages of other great players who have pulled the jersey on.

Paul Marqeut

On a serious note,Lee Briers has to be up there!

Yes with Parry Gordon forget the flyby nights one or two games or a year or two take the money and run.

Jiffy
Moz
Briersy

les boyd for me, maybe danny nutley as you can see i like good hard working players..
