[QUOTE="Gay-Guy, post: 77270"] Jeff Wilson was one of the best roamers in the game when he played....always turned up to be Johnny on the spot and make the touchdown. His pace was genuine.......looked like he was going slow but in reality he was moving real fast! Hard to say if I would put him in the hall of fame....judging wingers is very hard to do as there are so many out of this world wingers that have come and gone. Therefore I judge wingers on the impact they had on a team as well as what they have achieved. For instance I rate Ieuan Evans as up there during the early nighties period as he was the captain of a struggling Welsh side, a real rock for them. You could see his class really shine through when he toured with a stronger team as he did with the Lions. Jeff Wilson was the third of a dynamic trio of outside backs that were the complete package. Cullen, lomu and Wilson...........all different styles yet the best in the business for their time with their style. Maybe if Wilson was born in a different era? [/QUOTE]
