Brett was treated much the same at rep level. That SOO game where Brett was named at starting NSW fullback then Bellamy switched him for Gidley and hardly gave Brett any game time (if any?) was imo the worst decision ever made by a rep coach.

He got out coached by Meninga and Hagan
Without Smith and Cronk he's a fraud
Anyone who allows Gidley a run I the sky blue should be tried for high treason and blasphemy
In my opinion, the same could be said about Meninga. Take Hagan out of the coaching equation and see how good a coach Meninga is.

James Hassoooon, you bastards never gave this top class international prop his due.
I mean how could you get to play for Scotland and not be in the run on side every week!
Fair dinkum!

Ah, Norm Pounder, I met him at the Roosters game when he signed me up for the Men of League
Close, only a Sea separated them!!

Just listening to talking sport and heard that an old prop of ours Ian baker died two days ago. Was more a underrated roosters player than us but still pulled on the maroon and white for a season so respect for that.
RIP Ian.

In all honesty alot of these players, even the ones i mentioned didn't have long careers. Haggett, dunford and shaw were not around that long ( underrated ) yes but imagine what some could have done had they been around longer . Stuart the bug davis was in our great 87 victory but injuries and whatever didn't last long after that . A very slight man but i wonder how he would of went in today's game . The great mal Cochrane had a fair 86 and a great 87 but injuries again killed him if you know what i mean and basically that was the end of him . A crying shame , All underrated but what could have been.

In actual fact i dont think robbo or hancock were underrated, they just were not in the right arse licking circles.

Magilla Thompson. Part of our great 78 team. I think he played for the Kangaroos but perhaps isn't highly rated. He also was CEO in our darkest period and paved the way for our resurrection as a premiership force. As I went to most of the matches in 1978, I used to love watching the late Rick Chisholm in the lower grades. A brilliant player who was hampered by his personal demons.
