Why isn't Brett Hodgson in the poll?

Because he plays for Warrington which is a small club with a small club mentality

,

Has anybody read Rad's book ?, look what he says about Wellens....." it's an honour to be compared to him, he's a wonderful player ", now you may say, 'well he would say that' but thats not true, he didn't need to even mention him, Wellens has been a good, solid, reliable fullback, a lack of pace is the only drawback to his game, there are, and have been, lots of far worse players in SL than Wellens.

I'd Say Billy Slater !! Always in the right place at the right time !! Brilliant Player !!

By simply comparing Radz to Slater backs up that he's one of the most overrated players we've had.
People are comparing him to arguably the best FB ever! He had the basics, could catch, was quick and could tackle, nothing more. Hardly ever saw him break a tackle.

i can't believe that any player other than Billy Slater received any votes in this poll.

All the other players are simply not in his class

you need to understand the game fella...

After Sam's last gasp tackle on Friday he is getting there fast!!!!!!

He is class!!!!!

Gary Jack for me.

+1

yeh fine player but any of you pie eaters who have good memories how do you rate George Fairburn in your list of Wigan greats ?

Slater is the complete fb, rads not anywhere near the same league.

Sam has potential to be the greatest British fb of all time.

Coming from you that means very little.

Rads - Used to rate Rads as the best in the business but as someone said he hardly broke a tackle. He didn't have too though. His job was to defend and boy could he do that. One of the best one-on-one tacklers I've seen. Whilst his partnership with Lam and Faz was good it wasn't the partnership that Billy Slater has with Cam Smith and Cooper Cronk.

Webb - Good attacking fullback who is safe under the high ball but not sure his tackling is as good as Rads. The fact that Lance Hohaia gets in at 1 ahead of him for NZ says something as Hohaia can't catch a cold.

Wellens - Good reader of the game and a great tackler but slower than a one legged man doing the 800m.

Sam - Not a fullback but there's no reason why with Rads and Hampo as coaches he can't turn into one. Devastating when he chimes into the line. Needs to improve under the high ball.

Billy Slater - Makes mistakes like all players but his broken field running and as mentioned partnership with the halves is the best ever. The best of this generation by far. Best ever? Not sure you can compare as the roles have changed too much imo.

love off and learn the game

The best fullback I've seen play for Wigan

I'd probably agree and say he was the most complete I've seen at Wigan in that he could catch, kick, tackle, had good pace and could beat a man.

Correct, Man Of Steel winner in a relegated team, says it all about George, and a nice bloke

He certainly is, had many a chat with him in the Poacher (Winstanley) on a Thursday night.

And me.

By far.

Slater by a country mile for me, even if i dont particularly like the bloke!

Another mindless empty post. Seriously concentrate on the game rather than mocking people over their opinion. You're life surely can't be that empty. Oh wait a minute...

Discussion is welcome but your stupid of shoot comments aren't.

hypocrite

Sorry littleman; I'm not entertaining another mindless back and forth with you. I made an opinion about the Radz, you don't have to agree, I don't care what you think really.

You need a life, I'm not going to be here to fill it for you with arguing on a RL forum, it's very sad.

All the best.
