The only ones in contention to be immortalised should be jt and smith.

Smith won't be because of the brown paper bag era. They have kept every smelly thing that J.T. has been near quiet so he can be made one.

[crikey chris]

Is it any surprise that we are linked to another player who is apparently unsettled or unhappy at their club.

Lol ..I am still waiting for our other fullback options to arrive. Snake, Teddy, Hayne etc.

Yes, VH is a talent. Sharks will get rid of Barba before Homes.

This just sounds like another bullshit rumour

Agree with both. Smith is incredible - he's the best player I've ever seen.

Definetly, Inglis falls into the mentions category fractionally below with the likes of Lockyer Fittler Meninga Slater

[Tommy Smith]

Inglis doesn't belong in the same category as Fittler. Or Lockyer.

And i aint biased. Freddy was a ****ing natural footballing genius. Lockyer and Slater not far behind.

Please don't mention Inglis in his company again. Even Cam Smith dreams of having Freddy's talent.

Anyone who believes those two have even close to Freddy's genius have been reading too much of the biased media who want to annoint every second Qlder an Immortal.

Slater and GI don't have the kicking game that Lockyer and Freddy had plus Locky and Fittler were great game managers. Something Inglis has never had to worry about.

GI is the better ball player between he and Slater however Slater clearly the superior overall FB.

[Tommy Smith]

I disagree and think that Slater is a much better ball player. He chimes into backline moves beautifully.

But Freddy is on another level entirely. He has GI's running game PLUS an amazing passing game and a far greater natural instinct for the game. Freddy is, amazingly so, the most underappreciated player in modern rugby league history. Even by some of our own fans. Amazing.

Slaters chiming in is top notch however his passes don't always find their mark. He'll often bust the line and score when sweeping around the back.

GI spent 2 seasons playing five-eighth down at the Storm and has Slater covered in ball playing department.

Freddy was a god but he doesn't have GI's running game.

I have Slater and Freddy on an equal level, in their respective positions they were the best in the world.

[Headless Chook]

Same here but pre 2006. I think the only better fb I have ever seen than that was hayne in the end of 2009.

But Mini pre 2006 , certainly has the better of both Inglis, Slater and maybe even RTS, all round I mean.

Some of those runs he made on kick returns back then were in a class of their own. Defensively he was always as safe as a house.

You have to be kidding?? How was Mini and all round better player than any of those guys listed? He was good without being great. Slater craps all over Mini in all departments of the game

[Insider]

I certainly don't under rate Freddie tommy, I wouldn't have swapped him for any of those players including the immortal Johns. Comparing the likes of johns with Fittler or Lockyer is like splitting hairs, there's nothing between them. Fittler owned Johns in a few of those finals games. If u were to pick a team of the best players of the last 20 years, since the NRL was formed, what would it be. I would go Lockyer Hayne Renouf Inglis Slater Thurston Johns Fittler Tallis SBW Lazarus Smith Webcke

You need to get a clue before making such statements!! Lockyer and Fittler should not be mentioned in the same sentence, Fittlers natural ability was far and above and didn't need Tony Carol to make his tackles. On Cam Smith.. your looking at best game manager of all time, no one has ever controlled a footy game like him he is a genius. On Inglis... A super athlete that floats in and out of games.. Goes well when his teams going well, Lazy Lazy Lazy!!

LMFAO!!!! Freddy could break tackles as good as any.. And regularly get through a D line untouched, GI has a good palm and is easily tackled rounds his skinny legs.. Faaarks me why tards try to take him high.

Freddy had a great running game. To say it's better then Inglis's though is just wrong, Inglis is one of the most damaging players of all time. His size, speed and athleticism is a rare trait.

I think Inglis is lazy and overrated but when he's on he breaks tackles at will and can swat off good defenders with ease.

[Parkway_Drive]

Freddy's running game was as good as Inglis at their respective peaks. Freddy didn't possess Inglis' pace or power but made up for it by deception and picking the right time. Even at 33 that try he scored against the Dragons in that classic ANZAC day game is a good example.

On his day his running game could destroy opposition defensive structures on his own.
