Offiah and Robinson.

I could have played inside Offiah and he'd have still topped the try scoring charts.

Well, actually, he wouldn't - I'd never pass to the to$$er, and I'd help the opposition tackle him

I'll give you Robinson, but Offiah would be murdered in the modern game against full time professionals. The "Penny" of his day
