[QUOTE="kaftka, post: 60960"] I voted no. As stated earlier, there have been many greater fullbacks in the world. Maybe at some stage he should be included, but right now, it is a bit early. He has had a stellar career, amassed a nice number of points, won a lot of trophies, but outside of the stats, did he really have such a blinding career. IMO, whenever I watched him play, he never seemed to have the "X" factor. I don't know whether it's because he looks like Joe Everyman, or for the simple fact that I'm a Kiwi, but he never had the "presence" on the field that guys like Cullen and JPR had.... Or either Latham. ....But he definitely deserves a spot more than Latham. Don't get me wrong. B) Let's get some other guys in there first. [/QUOTE]
