  I'd still be saying this if GOD FORBID I was a Knights supporter but there are way better athletes in NRL than Kurt Gidley

  Fabrice Lappierre is a long jumper, I believe he holds the world record

  Actually Gidley is a bit of machine, i remember reading about his training efforts and he carves up. He can run something ridiculous in the Beep test

  Yeah he is a great player im just saying that there are better players that probably should have made this list before him (just my opinion), but i suppose they had to pick someone, even if they had Greg Inglis or Jarryd Hayne on there someone would disagree with it im just saying what i think about it

   ParraMatters#1Fan, I have been hearing for the last couple of years that Kurt Gidley is THE- fittest guy in the NRL.

  And I`m sure they are trying to find out who is the FITTEST athlete rather than the Greatest athlete like the shows name suggests.

  P.S what was Wendall Sailor doing on there a couple of years ago ? Must have been making the numbers up because Billy Slater killed it and Sailor might have finished last in the series or atleast close to last.

  I heard who wins this one, and whether someone was pulling my leg or not, I wouldn't know, but it's not who I would have thought would come out on top by any means.

  Definantly a great show.. The series with Billy Slater and Andrew Symonds was good!

  This season will be shitehouse because they havn't entered any athletes with what is known as a PERSONALITY. The first season was great with Andy Symonds, Joel Griffiths, Steve Hooker who were all great value as entertainment. Last season just scraped through with the big Dell the real only source of life as well as Matt Mitchem the diver who was also entertaining.

   

  This season has Kurt 'Im in the origin team because I try hard' Gidley

   

  Quade 'Im porking Steph Rice' Cooper

   

  Eamon 'I used to pork Steph Rice' Sullivan

   

  Mark 'They call me frosty for a reason' Winterbottom

   

  Fabrice ' Takes the term 'go jump' seriously' Lappierre

   

  Shannon 'Did anyone know who I was before last season?' Eckstein

   

  Frank 'Deadset some bloke they pulled off the street' Wallace.... and

   

  Luke 'AFL players are undoubtedly the greatest athletes in the world even though Billy Slater has owned us over the last 2 seasons' Hodge

   

  But honestly theyr'e all boring as shit and I suspect the show to be as well, especially without Slater back to have a rightful crack at retaining it for 3 straight years.

  Thought Slater was injured that is why he couldn't participate
