He has 30 tries in his last 66 super league appearances, i'm sorry but that's not too shabby imo. Don't really see how you can argue with his sideways running. He runs along the line looking for a little gap and how many times has he made a half break through doing this? also runs the ball well from dummy half allowing the forwards a break. Don't really see what else he can do for the team

.

A 50% success rate in a team with the worst attack in the competition sounds like top quality to me. If he'd been playing outside gidley and lyon for the last few years he'd have been by far and away the top try scorer. His defence and kick chase are the best of any winger in the competition. I remember a wonder tackle on henry fa'afili a couple of years ago and also the try he scored in Oz when chasing a kick everyone else had given up on. His only failing for me is his injury record

Spot on. That tackle on Fa'afili was unbelievable. Over his 8 year career with FC, he's been the best British player we've had. IMO.

Better than Horne?

Yes, IMO. I really rate him, if you hadn't noticed.

I think Horne's an excellent player too, but Raynor shades it IMO.

Raynor is that good even zod rates him

I'd noticed you really rate Raynor, but I suspect it's not his playing ability that you solely admire.

"World Class", no less.

Don't know what you mean.

Not really my type though, more of a Thackray/Yeaman fan in that respect, so my opinion of him is earnt solely through his on-field performances.

Agree completely. He's easily the best British winger around IMO.

Not got a lot to compete with though............and as being the best British player we have had....good god......Horne and Cooke are a damn site better and you could sling a couple more in there as well...........

agreed on both counts, it's a bit like a place we went to for a meal a few months ago, it's the "best restaurant in Mansfield", the fact that there are only 3 and they are all crap meant it was still fairly rubbish!
