THANK YOU fishy - I was getting very worried about the ability and footy knowledge of the people on here when Hock had not been mentioned.
Sanity at last.
Just call me the voice of reason, Col.
Hi The Voice of Reason, you must be new here. lol
Thanks gor the welcome! Not sure how well I'm going to fit in here, but it should be fun!
Man, Guru vs Zip, how hard is that? Raw power and brutality versus pure elegance in motion.
My old man says that Zip is the most underated centre in the game and, as a threequarter, is at the same level of all the greats. Reckons noone in the modern era (not even Bert) movced accross the ground as effortlessly as him. I'm gonna plumb for ZipZip as a nod to the old boy :)
Great match up. I think Guru might get it with a huge factor being THAT try against the Doggies..

Kram the closest I've seen to Zip Would have to be Steve Renouf
Zip-Zip got my vote old son.
Think you are right Kram; i voted for the Zip. He was also a handy goal kicker and unfortunately dogged by injury. Superb player.
I remember watching Steve Elle. He just was never in the conversation for great centres as were his contemporaries like Gene Miles, Steve Rogers, Mick Cronin and Mal Meninga.
He was often injured. And he was way smaller than the aforementioned four or, for that matter, any modern day centre.
But, I remember that he was very, very good!
But, EGS for me in this vote!
