Chris Sandow really was so exciting. Then ... the injury. A bit later I watched a video of him fighting in some tough street in Oz.
What might have been ... or was it always going to happen?

Just my opinions unless it's a FACT, in which case it's a fact.

How about “thin” Appo?

On his day, for me, he was the most exciting to watch - such a mercurial player. Closely followed by Jonathan Davies who was probably my all time favourite player since watching in the late 80s.

Bobby Fulton was the most exciting player I have seen in over 60 years. Sandow was the closest to Fulton's impact on a game I have seen since, it was just a pity how Sandow turned out.

Toa should be in this. Memories of Toa may be lessened by his second spell when he had lost the edge of his pace (although was a more solid tackler and didn't get sent off) but peak Toa from 1999-01 was a special centre who had fantastic footwork and great hands.

Brian Johnson was electric at full back - he’d be a good shout for this team.

Alan Hunte not resonating for any of you? He was an outstanding player and there was better sight than seeing him in full flow on a break or interception.

I liked Hunte, and he did a good job for us under difficult circumstances, but he was past his best. Other than Salford away in the cup, which was great!

Simpler times.
