Message: [QUOTE="Professor47, post: 2267077, member: 1831"] I was using the term liberally and generally - I think it was dissected a bit too much! I WAS going to mention ET. Has to be in the top 3 'elite' player without a premiership... which I feel for him... used to love him as a kid. In saying THAT - I never put him in the league of the Lockyers and Langers and what not. In terms of the "best" (excluding forwards) I've never seen any better than Langer, Locky and Joey. Those 3 are untouchable IMO. Certainly in my league time. But you still have those Daleys, Fittlers, Stuarts... Most 'elite' ball players have been able to lead a team to premiership glory. I won't deny that Nth QLD have horrible team structure though... hell I could outrun some of their outside backs!!!!! I'm just saying... it's hard to talk of Thursto in the same category as those above if he goes through a career without winning a title. - and dont forget those mentioned above DID lead the team (figuratively) to premiership glory. (Loved his services for QLD though...) Oh yes and Jones is the one off I suppose... He was in pearl form in 02 but missed out in the GF and he played pretty well that night (1st half) as well. Then they got really unlucky in 03 and lost to a field goal didn't they? [/QUOTE]
