Message: [QUOTE="Big Pete, post: 2363184, member: 1899"] I made a mistake and voted Lewis. I was brought up in a house where I was lead to believe he was the best and my parents could recite his best moments (mostly for Queensland, Australia and the Panasonic Cup team - mum was a Magpies fan and dad thought the BRL was bush league and didn't care). Given I've only seen a few old tapes of him, it was a silly decision to make. At their best, I preferred Joey as a player. He had more variation, could perform anywhere on the field (where as Locky always loved the fringes) and was a bigger physical preference. Lockyer was a better athlete and could read the attack better but I'd say Joey covers him on the other areas. With that said, I've seen basically every Lockyer game from 2000 onwards where as I've only seen Joey in rep. games and the odd Newcastle game. I've seen Lockyer at his best and worse where as I mostly caught Joey at his best. On the other hand I've been reading through my collection of Rugby League Yearbooks and Alfie sounded awesome in 1995-96. Basically every match report has been Alfie either dominating a team or saving the Broncos bacon with a match winning play. Webcke also seems to rate Alfie higher. [/QUOTE]
