I know one who will better

In recent years Duncan McGilvray

For me pound for pound it's Nigel Bell no question but as I started watching in 1988 I've not seen them all.

Agree with you

Geoff Wriglesworth was one of the old school. None of this four men in a tackle all going around the upper body. He usually went in one-on-one low around the legs shoulder first. A joy to watch.

And he had a hand-off like a piston.

Wigan away, first game of the Super Eights. Jordan put some of the bigger names in the side to shame that night, 34 tackles made and no misses if I remember right?

Seem to remember that name, would he have played in the game against the Aussies around 73?

Mr Idle without a doubt.
Others
Nigel Bell, Mcdermott , and a centre we got from Hull could have called him Day. He also became captain for a short spell.

players who were tackled by Wrigglesworth usually went down like thy had been shot with a gun...

Idle was a machine as was Paul McDermott...

Belly came good but I still remember his first couple of seasons (after his Wally partnership) when the team was poor and badly coached and he looked fat and lazy and played like it... I never really forgave him for that period and consequently he was never a favourite player of mine.

Players like John Glancy and Richard Slater deserve mention but my vote goes to Ray Price.. he seemed to hit like a steam train!

Watching olds tapes of Nigel Bell you have to laugh at his "gull wing" technique of laying on in the tackle.

You are talking about Terry Day we got him from york and sold him to Hull.

Thanks for that Cheshire cat.
