[QUOTE="miccloarch, post: 956014, member: 78309"] Gareth Edwards, without question. It's pretty stupid to say: "we can't compare eras" then in the same breath claim: "if modern players were magically transported to the past, they'd be unstoppable because athleticism." It is incredibly hard to compare players from different eras, but all you can do is a like-for-like analogy, which amounts to how much better they were/are than their peers. It's a qualitative judgement, something some people apparently struggle with. [/QUOTE]
