@Zmart304 жыл бұрын
john browndog that tends to happen mate. The new player has to wait for the veteran to retire. Which is why Thurston had to wait for Joey to retire and played off the bench in his test debut. Joey in his test debut played out of position at hooker and set the record for most points ever scored in a test debut, won mvp of the World Cup and was only 20 years old. Please only reason kimmorley got the nod of Joey was cuz of Chris Anderson who favoured kimmorley. Selectors wanted Joey at halfback but Anderson wanted kimmorley. Pretty sure Thurston played out of position most of his career anyway. So did Cronk and slater

Joeys SOO record at HB - 7 wins 7 losses 2 draws. JTs SOO record at HB - 12 wins 7 losses. Cronks SOO record at HB - 11 wins 5 losses Langers SOO record at HB - 17 wins 15 losses 1 draw You don’t need to be much of a mathematician to figure out who has the shittest record out of these guys. In fact grade 1 math would suggest the shittest record belongs to the token immortal. So basically, the one who has no clue... is YOU!! Goose.

Represented Aus in 23 Tests.. from the bench, at hooker, and occasionally at half. Now if you want.. we can introduce Thurston and Cronk into the equation as well. Joeys rep career was utter shite as far as halfback goes.

People keep mentioning GI but its about the SPINE, GI is & will always be amazing but a 'Single' amazing player doesn't win Games, a great 'Spine' does and its very very rare that spine consists of Super-Star Hooker, HB, 5/8 & a FB all in one team... yes there has been great combos like Alfy & wally or Fitler & Johns(& Minichello) but who was the regular Hooker &/or FB? These guys brought it to the table (Inc. Lockyer the Grandfather/King of it all) and the GI's Boyd's Civo's Price's Hodge's Gagai's Thaiday's Scott's Parker's Tate's of the Games finished what they was creating at any particular second of the game. There will NEVER be this again in our era. You pick the Top 18 players of the past 13yrs & they would beat any team from any era without a doubt.

Albert Kelly Agreed, but how many of GI"s tries have been set-up by that spine, particularly Thurston? I'm not saying GI isn't a great player, he definitely is, but it's because he's got such a great spine setting up the plays that he's allowed to shine in the way that he does.
@albertkelly71299 жыл бұрын
Garry Shearman in all honesty, not many. look at it this way, if GI was someone different, Thurstons efforts mostly would have gone to waste. It is precisely the greatness of GI that translated Thurstons efforts to tries. Besides that, my memory says most of GIs tries came from running over people and hence causing massive holes in defences that let him score himself or created tries for Boyd and others. In my opinion he really is head and shoulders above that spine put together. Put him in the NSW side and the 9-1 would more likely be split halfway...
