| Quote: Nnibly_Warrior "Not much point in me doing this, as I'm only 25, but Rads was my favourite player growing up and I'd pick him over Sam for his defence alone. I often remember Radders coming out of absolutely nowhere to stop certain tries and take the would be try scorer from plonking the ball down in the corner to nigh sitting in the stands!
However my Dad has always said in his opinion Gary Connolly was the best full back we ever had.'"
I also though Connolly was a better fullback that Radlinski. When he went to Leeds late on in his career they played him at FB.

| Strange that no-ones mentioned the points machine we're about to lose, Pat Richards.

| The guy that spoke about Richards and Botica points machine. It is all about personal preference and the best players in my opinion.

| The best Wigan team performance I have ever witnessed was the Wembley win against Hull in 1959. Hull had arguably the most formidable pack in the league and were in top form but were hammered 6 tries to 1 by the Wigan side.
I came from Australia to see Hull beaten by Wigan for the second time in 1985 in the best Challenge Cup Final I have seen at Wembley - seen 20, the first in 1950.
Unfortunately will not get to this one but will be watching it live from midnight Sat here in Aus.

Henry Paul is very unfortunate to miss out but you can't break that Edwards/Gregory partnership and Dean Bell can't not be in your 17. He could cover the back line and also the back row and lets face it was hard as nails.

I think Dermott would cope in todays game. He was an excellent distributer and tackler.

I would have him in my team - only McCormack has been close in ability (with Newton probably third on the list)
