| Connolly and Inga for me
but...
when you delve into the possibilities
H. Paul - FB, Centre, Halves
Connolly - FB, Centre, Wing
Radlinski - FB, Centre, Wing
Robinson, FB, Wing, Halves
Inga, Centre, Wing
Edwards, FB, Halves
Botica, FB, Wing, Centre, Halves
All played in the same era, the team wasn't weakened if you moved them all around. Imagine having that option now. We grumble about 1 player moving position these days.All world class players.

You were also the only pro team so cherry picked all the great players!

I was only young but old enough.
I’ve never seen a centre do what he could ball in hand.
His ability to take contact from 2 and 3 defenders, take them out if the game and still offload to his winger was ridiculous and something he did consistently not just every now and again.
Lyon was the next best that I have seen in the SL era but still a long way short of Miles.

| Weren't Leeds full time before us?
Didn't Leeds keep spending mega bucks on our star players so they could compete with us only for them to flop and we just went and made another star player?
Must have been disappointing for you to keep spending all that money to finish second to us in every competition. Alan (nobody beats me on my outside) Tate

If he never saw Miles play he isn’t old enough to know Leeds were the first full time club.
He will have years listening to the rest of the Leeds United ship jumpers tell him big bad Wigan were the first and only fully pro team in the league for 20 years.
