In looking at the two players the real test for Slater will be if he is going nearly as strongly at age 32 where Mini is now.
I think one of the reasons Easts fans are proud of Mini is how he still is one of our best consistently in even in 2012, and provides the consisently high energy that some of our other guys lack in their game.

This may be controversial but in my opinion Luke Phillips was a better fullback than Mini - the skills he had were pretty extraordinary - unfortunately injuries cut his career short.Two things are infinite: the universe and human stupidity; and I'm not sure about the universe

Diamond was twice the player Mini was, or ever will be.
I'll go as far as to say that if Phillips plays in the 03-04 GF's we win three in a row.
Same goes for the champion that is Brett Mullins.

version of Langlands but less overrated by a couple of notches. People asking for a fullback like Slater is too much to ask they only come around every 50 years. Churchill in the 50's Slater in the 2000's someone else in the 2050's hopefully Billy Slater the 3rd plays for the tri-colors if the NRL hasn't totally changed the face of Sydney clubs by then.

the one thing I remeber head to head about Slater and Mini when he was in his prime was beibng at Suncorp in SOO 3 2005 The last time we wona series Mini made a clean break looked from well inside his own half looked set to score But Slater mowed him down pretty easilyI respect all our moderators here. Past present and even future. Always have done and always will do a wonderful job.
