This has been done a number of times and the top 5 was pretty consistant and any of 20 or so more than could have been included and were in some peoples judgement. I think when everything was compiled in a vote Mev was declared the best.

My top 5 accross the same time as Scott would be.

1. Rod Altes
2. John Paul Burns
3. Eddie Taylor
4. Mev Ali
5. John Goldsmith

The other players that featured from present to past were:-

Kyle Pickett
Tony Jackson
Andy Esgrove
Myself
Graf Bishop (He wasnt on the list but would be on mine)
Jason Deegan (Cheetahs)
Terry Doke (Cheetahs)
Paul Whearty (Everyone)
Danny Evans (Prop/Eagles)
Ray Tolfrey Snr (Eagles)
John Broadway (cheetahs/Eagles)
Dennis Blosse (Rosendale/Drillers)
Steve Connors (Eagles)
Alan Dobbs (Rosendale/Drillers He wasn;t on the list either but was very good)
Jess Chatwell (Characters
Marvin Jones (Characters)
Ray Mills (Characters)

I deliberately left 'Whispering' Hugh Telford of the list, to give him the opportunity to confirm how many of the above he has beaten at money matches.

Many good players have played in this league over the years, and at no point has the best team available ever represented the league. Its a shame really, could have done some damage on a ntional level if everyone got involved. I am sure there are 10 or 15 more players that I have missed.
