No Edwards?

5-Lam

Ellery Hanley
Andy Gregory
Dean Bell
Andy Platt
Faz

Of course, such lists are subjective but I can't see how anyone can leave Ellery off at all!

Lam? Radz? you're high!

If you had a choice of only Hanley or Farrell who would it be?

They're 'my' top 5.

I've been watching us since 1989 and they have been my 5 favourite players but also the 5 i feel made the biggest contribution to us from that time onwards.

I can understand somebody questioning Lam but Radlinski?

Miles
Farrell
Bell
Robinson
Skerrett

Those are the 5 I enjoyed watching the most.

Miles because of his unbelievable handling skills, simply the best hands I've ever seen from a centre, by some distance. When you have that much skill and the power and physical presence that Miles had it was a joy to watch. Still think we should have got a second year out of him.

Faz because he always delivered, a huge presence in every sense.

Bell because he might not have had the physical gifts of a Farrell or the sublime skill of a Miles but he gave 100% to the Wigan cause, a courageous captain, a great leader and a nice guy.

Robinson because he could do things that no other player could; will there ever be another player with the pace off the mark, the agility and balance of Robinson? I don't think we'll see his like again.

Skerrett, well what can I say? Huge entertainment value. We don't seem to have characters like him around anymore (but then again did we ever, to be fair the Super Kel incident was pretty unique!).

I do not think the thread is aimed at naming the top 5 players on ability just the top 5 players people liked to have at the club/watch.

It becomes a bit on non envent trying to debate with someone over the plyers they have chosen as it is a totally personal thing.

As a young fan - it has to be

Rads
Faz
barrett
renouf
lam

I'd have to agree with them, players from my lifetime, Faz a player I always looked uo to at a very young age, then developing as to which position I'd play in the game, Radlinski become my icon.

Although he wasn't at the club a very long time, I always liked Brett Dallas, he was very professional to the game of rugby.

Think he did 5 maybe 6 years with us not a bad "shift".

Hanley - Farrell spent many a year trying to be a 6 which did not help the club.
