| Quote: "swain v berrigan is a difficult one'"
Swain is absolutely miles ahead of Berrigan. He was the top tackler more than once in the NRL and in Super League, with his missed tackles being a rarity. He was also a real leader of the pack on the pitch giving direction to the team which has been missing since he left. Berrigan may be a good player but he is not in Swain's class as a hooker.

No way, however great you think Calders is, he's nowhere near the class Col Best was/is. Besty would start in most NRL sides.'"
Besty won best winger in the NRL last season

| Quote: berro's best mate "completely agree with that assumption...i also thought mcrae had taken us as far as he could, but i would take them days back right now...when we signed people like best and ritchie barnett( the good one) best was a young up and coming winger wanting to earn a deal in the nrl, so he had every reason to play to his maximum, he never missed a game in 2 years!!! and as for burnett, he was one of the best backs in the comp when we signed him, dont get me wrong mcrae still signed afew plodders ie sean ryan etc but our signings now seem awful compared to back then...
but looking at our squad now, the players mcrae had whilst at the club ie: horne,raynor,yeaman,king etc, i ask myself do any of these players have anything to prove to anyone?? they certainly will never be dropped no-matter how bad we play...maybe its time to get rid of afew players who seem not to be putting in a proper shift for fc....
Thought he was quite good in his first season with us, would have said he was one of Mcraes better signings tbh i rated him

And yet when he came to FC he was a relative unknown.

I'd like to point out I was quoting 'A unknown superstar'. I know full well that Calders isn't fit to clean Besty's boots!

I never said he was. But look at Calders during his time at Leeds, he scored loads of tries and in the 2004 team I'm sure he wouldn't of been for off again.
