            • I get that Super, but the fact he played 20 odd test for Australia back then sums it up, and his 4 premierships.....Hindmarsh was superb and no issue about that, and yes he rep Aust and NSW too. 

              • I think people forget how good Hindy was. He won the Dally M second rower of the year award five times from 2000-2006, which is the same number of Dally M lock of the year awards that Ray Price won from 1982-1986.

                I get the premierships are a big part of Price's legacy but I dislike using them when it comes to judging individual players given a Premiership is a team endeavour, relying on each member doing their job. 

                • I guess people will look at it all how they choose Super. My point for Price is his impact on the team and his legacy on those players. It is like how players have mentioned similar traits about playing with Cronin. 

                  Hindmarsh had all those awards - yes absolutely tough as, but nowhere in my view the impact as players such as price. I would say even guys like Dean Pay maybe had a stronger impact, and thats just my view.

  •  when does the Price/Hindmarsh poll end?

  • After more than 300 votes the two are inseparable. We will go into a runoff vote limited to one vote per person. The voting period will end in 60 minutes.

    Now to understand why there were over 300 votes, this blog has received more than 1,000 page views in the past 24 hours, Facebook itself has generated around 100 visits on its own, with our Facebook followers generally being younger than those on this page.

    As some have pointed out, those under the age of 40 are also unlikely to remember Ray Price playing for the club.

    Your 60 minutes start now. The vote will be closed at 2:36pm AEST.

    • whats this run off bullshit? Hindmarsh was ahead by 8 or 9 last time I looked. So everytime a pole is close you are going to close it and do a 60 minute one? That's dodgier than a Russian polling booth Super! #Kennywillwin

      Not that this poll had much credibility to start with, but Super you've turned this voting process into a farce. For the record I don't care which of Hindy or Price wins. I think the final will be Sterlo vs Kenny. But when you pull this run off bullshit and erase the last 24 hours worth of votes then you are result fixing and cheat!

      • When I went to close the vote they were even. 160 votes each. 

         

        • can you prove that? cause I've been checking the polls and Hindy was ahead by 10 at 1.18pm. 

          • No, I just replace the embed code and I'm not logged into the poll maker. I was updating the poll at 1.30pm.

        • then leave the vote open an hour longer instead of doing a whole new poll!  #resultfixing

"If by soon, you mean end of the season, then sure. When we extended him in May 2025 he'd played 6 games of first grade. And who is to say we're not talking to him right now to extend further?"
