Quote mean_machine="mean_machine"there is an argument surely that Ellis best rugby was abroad as well?'"
Arguably, but he was Wakefield's talisman and a key part of the Leeds side in his 4 years there, playing in 3 Grand Finals (winning 2). That's pretty impressive, IMO. Burgess only actually played 76 games in SL, Ellis is approaching 250. I wouldn't necessarily go with Ellis, but IMO he's got more of a case than Burgess.
With Morley it's admittedly a bit more controversial as I said, but IMO I think his NRL reputation has overshadowed what he's done here a bit. He was only ever part of a successful SL side when he parachuted into the dominant Bulls team for the last half a dozen games, and were it not for a lot very generous refereeing since his return he should have spent a hell of a lot more time in the stands. In terms of what they did in SL, I'd say Fielden achieved/performed more.
