Arguably the worst 250+ game Bronco.

The comment was .... since Berrigan
Wich is a sad commentary on the void containing better than average dummy halves we've had to endure.
Ben Hunt......
maybe.

Found a list, he stands out in a bad way.

Macca and Glenn are the two not like the others .

Yeah for sure although I always rated Glenn in the good not great category. Macca... Ughh, it hurts to think how long he pained me with his turtle runs and awful dive over attempts.
Up there with John Morris for how did they reach 300 games.

Yes Fourex, but when you make that point you have to actually illustrate what a Berrigan performance looks like. I don't think any dummy half has touched that performance including Billy. I'd argue that there have been several performances as good as what Billy produced against the Eels.
It's all good to give credit where it's due, but let's not get carried away...

On that point we agree...... it was a rather over the top statement to begin with.

Jesus, I can’t believe it was actually 12 year and 250 games. Feels like 4 or 5 really long years but I had completely removed the memories from my brain.
He played like 70 games with Lockyer. It’s like when people say Cleopatra’s life was closer to the building of the first Pizza Hut than it was to the building of the pyramids. The timeline doesn’t sound right

They don't have any rings. I think if we win in 2015 that would have lifted their legacies - particularly Glenn's, who would have played for QLD if he was eligible.

I remember being livid when Granville signed with the Cowboys. I thought he was the better 9 out of him and Andrew Mccullough. Problem we had was that these dummy halves looked great when they came on and played 40ish minutes but when they played full games they lost their potency. That was Mccullough. He just turned in to a tackling machine which meant he was just passing from the PTB and really offered little in attack.

He's gone on to have a really good career in the Super League too. He would have been a much better option than Macca.

Yep. I really thought he was going to be someone special for us. I still don’t know what happened. Did he just not really want it?

Yep....I'd consider Parcell as one of the good ones that got away.
