Almost impossible question:

Retchless, Hill

Then anyone from:

Scott Cram, Greg fleming, Nigel Roy, Huoamona, Hethrington, McLinden, Edwards, Hopkins, Barnett Dymock.........................

Reading those names makes me want to cry - where have all our heroes gone...!

Although I'd add Moran to that list - no matter what happened afterwards the man scored a boatload of tries and won games by himself.

But for three to add to the current team I'd pick:

Haumono (summer version) - an absolute monster going forward and never properly replaced. Just ask that Widnes player he knocked out cold with a handoff...

Scott Hill (fully fit version) - man could pass the ball.

Ritchie Barnett (fully fit and motivated version) - not the best defender but the best strike runner we've ever had.

Gilly, Steel and Rusty from the first time he played for us. We have had some good players, Terry Matterson, Steve Rosolen, Tony Rea, Scotty Roskell, MArk Johnson........oh well. Those were the good old days. We didn't set the world on fire but we had some fine games that di the heart good. (and some rubbish.....!) And we'll have good 'uns again if we hold on to the likes of Louis MS, Chad Randall etc.

Steve Rosolen,

At last, I can't believe it took this many posts to come up with that name, same no one has mentioned Tony Mestrov, a fantastic pack leader.

Reading through the names here brings back memories, shame no one mentioned Victor Timms

My three would be -

Tony Mestrov
Steve Rosolen
Greg Barwick

Victor Timms! I remember that name with some fondness. Didn't he sign for at the same time as Leo Dynevor? I remember reading the pen pics in the Batley programme before a game against yourselves (the London Crusaders version) at Mount Pleasant, and worrying about the prospect of a giant Brisbane Broncos reserve prop who was listed amongst your squad. It turned out he was a some big, bald fat guy who made Neil Baynes look like the peak of physical fitness. Is this the same guy?
