Only caught the 2nd half due to working, looked like he was in my running around at 75%, although was unlucky when he got stopped just short of the try line. He should have passed to Eckersley as he would have been away and instead Catalans scooped the ball and put us under pressure.

Love watching Bevan probably more than almost any player since the mid 80's when I first started watching Wigan.

Roberts sticks out as someone who was very similar to how Bevan plays but such a shame he got injured as I'm sure he would have been held in similar esteem if we had seen him for a few seasons.

I can't go past Hanley as the best Wigan player I've seen though. Probably the English player the Aussies respected most even to this day.

Can't remember being as entertained by a player since Jason Robinson.

Since 1982:

Ferguson
Hanley
Robinson
Tomkins
Roberts
French

Bevan certainly has an x factor and does things in a game that others cant. What he has demonstrated at Wigan is his versatility too, with performances at FB, Wing and Stand-Off, running in and creating tries in all 3 positions

i'd add Offiah into the overall conversation, whilst he wasnt the best RL player in the world, he could do things that no-one else could (or has done since) in terms of his ability to find the try line from anywhere. He just looked so elegant in full flight and could take virtualy anyone on the outside with a yard of space

Kenny, Miles and Barrett all had great seasons with Wigan, and were a joy to watch but unfortunately we only had them for the short term

overall, my favourite player was Ellery, as he really was poetry in motion but equally hard as nails.
