    Again interesting... so wishing injuries on someone is not coo;- but minor ailments that are recovered on from quite quickly are OK

    i wonder where the forum stands on

    - a case of COVID
    - diarrhoea
    - the common flu
    - missing the bus
    - a rapana-esque hia for faking
    - a broken fingernail

    I wonder where the forum stands on players missing the bus

    Out of line, you’re a monster!

    Yeah cool, I could use Stranges 44 too

    Have the same mindset tbf

    Wishing for a player’s misfortune for your own fantasy gain makes you asshole. Celebrating an injury for your fantasy gain means you are just a plain old cunt. Its really just whether labels mean anything to you, I am wholly comfortable with being an asshole.

    Mal seems the easy pick, but Lazarus would be in contention. I have a friend who would assure me its Brett Mullins. Its funny I thought the likes of Ricky Stuart and Laurie Daley were geniuses when I was a kid, but since seeing them post football, their personalities have somehow soured their football capabilities. I call this the Freddy Fittler effect.

    It's probably Mal

    But Bradley Clyde is a personal favorite

    Wiki would round out my top 5

    Mullins hon mention for highlight reel but wasn’t that good for all that long and Belcher arguably a better FB all-time

    Lazarus really spent too little time there, thing is just as easily associated with Broncos and Storm
    Steve Walters a bit forgotten as well

    The real Raiders goat is probably Queanbeyan Leagues Club filtering all that money into the team so they could buy half the QLD side and a few premierships before getting caught salary cap cheating.

    Daley could be a little bit like Cody Walker in that he was more memorable for the games he dominated than the games be seemed to go missing - wasn't especially consistent from my memory
    Remember lots of criticisms of him failing to get his shorts dirty (not get involved with to the hard stuff).

    There were also times he was rightfully considered the best in the world, so probably fairly considered #2 behind Mal?

    Oh man I completely forgot about Clyde, he would have to be in my top 5. I was actually (embarassingly) a bit of a detractor from Mal becoming an immortal at the time, but I have reneged on my stance quite a lot since then, mostly on grounds of what you mentioned- 90s Meninga is an icon for RL itself. I bet if you pressed your ear up to the mighty girth of his thigh in 1994 you would hear Tina Turner playing. NRL really needs a Hall of Fame for all the calibres down from immortal status, something for the Daley’s of the world.

    Pretty good reasoning to my mind. When I was 7 I would have sworn with great conviction that it was Noa Nadruku- the flying Fijian Laugh 3

    I remember Laurie Daley was one of the bloke who did our removal in 1988. It was amazing for a kid to see this famous bloke sitting around whilst someone else did all the work. Truly an inspiration.

    Ruben Wiki.
    Brent Todd.
    David Barnhill.
    Jason Death.
    Sean Hoppe.
    Johnny Lomax.
    Quentin Pongia.
    Todd Payten.
    Lesley "The Volcano" Vainikolo

    and you can't talk Raiders greats without mentioning Alan Tongue and in a fantasy perspetive Campese was one of the all time greats up there with Soward, Smith and Parker.

    Obvious bias but these are the Raiders players I loved.

    No I will embrace the title of cunt when being a cunt. I don’t shirk or hide or call it kent. These are just words and they only have as much power over us as we let them.

    Ooft, another good pick. This has turned into a pretty nostalgic Sunday morning wait for football. Bring back the Sunday Roast with Voss and Gould!

    Solid list. I started playing Fantasy (Dreamteam then) when Campese was still playing, and he kicked the ever loving piss out of the ball. Its always cool when fantasy sports builds on your affections for already great players with some unique personal memories.
