| Littler - a great????????
Good lord I've heard some things in my time but this just about takes the biscuit, the biscuit tin, the cupboard the biscuit tin is in and the entire kitchen. To quote your good self, absolute twaddle.

| Quote Hillbilly_Red="Hillbilly_Red"Absolute twaddle, and you know it.
He holds down a place as he's good enough. His record says it all. He still shows up many Salford players with tackling, drives, metres and effort.
Our coaches do not select on sentiment - Myler, Highton etc. know this. Just because some spotty pupil, with a college computer, types garbage as his teen-idol has not been made captain does not make Littler anything but a great. I expect you to understand this.
You are entitled to your opinion but it is wrong.'"
I know you're usually full of yourself, but you're so far out of touch with reality on this one it's laughable. That penultimate sentence is utterly hillarious.
Effort isn't everything. Put me in a Salford shirt next week and I'll put in as much effort as I physically can. I'd still be sh*t, though.
Littler is far from a great. He's certainly been a great servant to the club, but let's face it, he wouldn't get near any other SL side.

| Firstly being "full of yourself" - that would preclude any defence of anyone else surely. It would be beneath my lofty gaze.
Secondly "Littler is far from a great" - check the record books. It does not matter if you or I disagree, if a history of Salford RLFC was written in the future, he would appear in the list of 20 greatest players. The stats prove this. He is a great. FULL STOP
Thirdly, we all can say we would put in the effort. If my employers gave me the stick Littler has been getting from elements on this forum, I wouldn't. I do my basic professional job and no more. Littler has never done this but puts his body on the line week after week.
Short memories and bias getting in the way methinks.

I agree with you on this one, seems that if a player wasnt involved in a challege cup winning team or a league title win or represented their country they cant be great.
Littler scored the try which beat leigh in the grandfinal when as a club we were at a crossroads lose that game and we might be where they are today, he has scored may a crutial try in the past, yes we have all thrown our hands over our eyes over the years when he has done the "littler dummy" over the years but we've all jumped up and down when he crashed over to score
Swings and roundabouts i surpose, we need to move on thou unless their is nothing better around, im sure with SS and Mcrae's transfer market form if there is anyone they will find them.

Playing a lot of matches doesn't make a player great! I'm not knocking Littler here, i'm in the tiny fan-club of his, but to say he's one of the 20 greatest Salford players of all time is pretty wide of the mark!!

From the fans
It cant be that far wide of the mark, he is a modern day great like Blakeley, Alker and Mark Lee

| Actually it does not matter what I or any of us think. In my youth I remember a player I rated highly called Smethurst.
We got rid.
Leigh won trophies through him. He was an international for them. Enuf sed.
