Did you never see Barry Williams or Andre Stoop.... where have you been

| I'm sorry to see George go.
He's a real talent and will probably go well at Canberra. He'd have also gone well at Wigan playing alongside Hastings.
Those two playing at 6 & 7 could have been something special. Unfortunately, from my pov, it's not going to happen.

That’s a great debate. Who’s the most exciting/attacking player...
Robinson and Offiah always got people off their seats.
In more recent years Barrett was a joy to watch.
But Hanley is the best I’ve ever seen. One of the only players who could have (throughout the course of this career) played any position, and played it well.
If you’re a podcast listener I’d recommend the Matty Johns podcast. Previous week he was discussing how good Hanley was in the NRL and what it was like playing against him, even when Hanley was at the back end of his career.

Not British born but David 'The Doc' Murray was the most exciting fullback ive ever seen at Wigan..... for all the wrong reasons.
He had all of Central Parks hearts in their mouths every time the ball went near him.
Still not as bad as Paul Koloi though. They promised us Kevin Iro MKII and we got somebody that was scared of going near the ball and would drop it if he was about to get tackled.

I remember “the doc” very well but as you say, for all the wrong reasons.
Paul Koloi was to Kevin Iro as Gary Henley Smith was to Martin Offiah

If the poor lad had been round nowadays he’d have been fine as Sky would’ve done him a favour.

Close, couldn't play at night due to being a sun worshipper. Played one trial game for the u21s, was rubbish, never seen again!

| I'm hoping Williams goes well. I've stuck a fiver on him to win Daly M doubled with NZ Warriors winning the comp. Returns a tidy 8 and a half grand.

He's making a joke based on the guy in dispute with William Hill after he bet on Hastings for MOS and Salford to make the play offs and they wouldn't pay out on the odds he was quoted as the two are related (ie if Hastings won MOS, its highly likely Salford made the play offs). The joke has soared over everyone's heads

| But Williams winning Dally M and NZ Warriors winning the GF wouldn't be a related bet so if it is a joke (which I doubt) it makes no sense.

Of course they would. If their new half back wins the Dally M, it follows that NZ almost certainly had at least a good year, making it more likely they win the final. Same as with Hastings/Salford. Ahhh never mind I give up
