I picked Hancock because he was involved in 5 of the 6 GFs. Can't knock that record.
 
Other 25th Anniversary celebrations

New heritage jumper featuring all 197 player names across the front of the jersey. Will be worn against the Cowboys in both games.

RLW are releasing a special 25th Anniversary magazine.

A 4 Disc 25 Anniversary which highlights 25 classic moments will be released sometime around May.

And finally the latest Broncos magazine is a 25th Anniversary special which is also a season preview complete with complete profiles of EVERY player.
 
This is gonna be fun ... and painful at the same time ... boy oh boy the broncos were a different beast back in the days when most of these nominees wore the colours ....

Lazarus & Webcke are my picks .... some really good props on that list ...
 
90's must have been the greatest decade for most people around here. And I'm not just talking about Football.
 
I voted Lazarus and Webcke I doubt you could find 2 better props than that. Be careful what you say about Lazzo Porthoz we couldn't win a premiership till he joined, his signing kickstarted our dominace of the 90's.
 
I know Lazarus was awesome, but I prefer to vote for a Qld'er than a NSW'ker, and Civo is really not that far behind him.

Hmmm....and some suggest my NSW hatred is over the top. :tongue_smilie:

To be honest .....I never liked Lazurus. He is a wanker,

but for the greater good, I feel he was a better player than Petero and there fore has to be in the starting team.

Whoa up young man....that's bullshit !!!!

Those premierships would have been won with or without Lazurus.

Hohn, Allen and Gee would've held there own with a backline like we had.
 
Lazarus isn't just one of the most influential props, he's one of the most influential players, period.

An out and out champion. Helped take us to the next level and it was an honour to see him wear our jersey.

Just wish he had better luck with injury.

All solid toilers. The brick put the side on the front foot at the start of every set with his customary 10m charges
