Aaron Mauger
Why ?
Astonishing skills
Really ? For once in a conversation with us two I’m being serious….I mean Spencer who played inside him had much freakier skills overall.
Even Lucky Luke had freakier skills.

Why ?
Because he's a very strange individual.

I don’t reckon he even watches rugby

Aaron Mauger
One of the last people I expected to see mentioned.
lol, I thought it was a joke because of one season Milner-Skudder gets mentioned, Im sorry even mentioning either in the context of some of these other greatest of the game freaks seems funny

Shane Williams. A guy that had a storied career (top Welsh try scorer in 6N and RWC, Lion, 6N winner) to be 5 foot 7 in an era of big physical players is a testament to his toughness
His running metres were in the negatives when he marked Rico Gear though

Quite a big difference between a discussion about the games greats & rugby freaks.

there is and perhaps I was not clear, I dont think you can compare either of the two mentioned with the super freaks of Lomu, Cullen as neither were freakish in comparison in my mind

I was at Seddon Park when Wilson hit an unbeaten 44 off 28 balls to win that ODI against Aust. A small sample size, but his batting was better than his bowling.
He tapped around the Waugh twins and Dodemaide in that cameo so it may not have carried across to when Wasim and Waqar came out the following year. Classic game though, one of my earliest cricketing memories!
His bowling was definately better than his batting, taking FC wickets at 24. But a 5ft10in right armer bowling in the mid-130s wasn't going to do much at international level.

The twins weren’t great bowlers, Dodemaide was bloody good in a brief career though.
But yeah, I would have loved to see a parallel universe and Goldie to choose cricket and see what happened.
