General Greatest Warriors XVII

I would openly cheat and put roger at center if he has a couple of good years, and SJ jnr at 6, so you can have both. When the greenius was here he was pretty much playing 2nd receiver.

If Egan makes a rep team (even a squad) he will nudge out Marsh who wasn’t here for very long.

Mannering, Lauititi, Harris is a sick backrow.

Ben matulino doesn’t come up too often in these teams but was a great prop in the a battling team for a while there.

AFB has to be alongside Price with another top season

DWZ in your all time team?? He doesn’t even make my ‘next weeks team’.
I feel like outside backs has been our weak point.
Tbh I think meli is remembered through rose colored glasses- had hands like feet and the turning circle of the titanic. Could put a massive shot on but for every one he nailed he’d let one in (bit like dwz and his interceptions tbf). Much like maumalo and fusitua he had a great year or 2- again u could probably say the same of dwz so yeah bit of a toss of the coin for that last wing spot imo.
Had to resort to mannering in the centers too- although he actually played more games there for us than the likes of vagana and Tate who are popular choices so not too much of a stretch.

I’d def go Toopi & Vagana at centre. Get what you’re saying on Meli, however him & Vatuvei on the wings would be great to see on attack at least. Has to be the 2 SJ’s in the halves.

Vagana a bit like wiki for me played his best footy elsewhere.
Also I’m just trying to shoehorn all our great forwards in- definitely had more depth in the forwards than the backs over the years.
Very hard leaving out the likes of seuseu, villa, matulino and luck.
