Message: [QUOTE="Huge, post: 2301835, member: 1992"] Correct Mr Pig. Like yourself I got to watch Wally in his prime and would say the fact that he has a statue dedicated to him ( and his skill ) indicates his standing in the rugby league fraternity. When Wally played you felt assured that the game would go well, you just had faith. He was so good that they changed the rules to stop him (they did that to Alfie Langer too )captaining Australia for a record number of times, forcing him to do a medical weeks before everyone else. A medical he both completed successfully but was failed in by a corrupt doctor at the behest of the NSW ruling body. The poisonous heirachy who ran the game during Wallys time even conceded, publicly, that Wally was the best going around. That sort of endorsement is not given lightly nor has such an accolade been bestowed on others yet. No-one has been said by any league pundit to be in Wallys class let alone surpassed him. In time guys like Mr Pig, Dexter, lynxooo and myself will be gone and forgotten and the supporters will not be so vocal for none will have seen Wally play but know this, there is only one King and his crown has not been lifted.
