Quote: barham red "Why?, quite simple, Kelly played 2 years at Rovers and wasn't fit tie Rogers laces either playing or professionalism wise. I agree better may come along in time but Kelly wasn't it.
Millward also played in a time when it was part of the game to smash little blokes around the head and go pretty much unpenalised. Think you'll struggle to find anyone (apart from some 70 year old bloke) who thinks Kelly was the best HB we have ever had...'"
Not disagreeing with you, but to be fair, I never saw RM play live.
I do think it pointless in comparing players of different era's, its a very different game now to what it was.
