Keith Mumby was the best fullback i have seen, simple as that

Only saw Keith at the end of his career so I don't really know. From what i've been told he was an absolute star and probably still would be today, even though the game has changed so much.



First full backs I remember were Roger Simpson and Dave Watson. Absolutely love Watson as everyone else hated him so much!!! lol

What no Ian Wilkinson???

What a absalute legend when you could get through the smoke

As if no votes for Nathan Graham !!!



Absolute legend under a Bobbie Goulding bomb

Bull era only i'm afraid.

The Ghost is an easy choice for me. Close between Sprogger and Kearney, Sprogger just shades it but Kearney has time.



Keith Mumby was, of course, the greatest fullback ever, in the world, if you want your fullback to be your last line of defence. I've never seen anything even close to how good he was. He was also deceptively good at joining the line and was often underrated on attack. But those tackles, and that instinctive positioning. We will never see the like again.



Withers was very sound and reliable as a defensive F/B but his unerring attacking instinct and ghosting in for tries, often crucial ones in big games, was a treat to watch. So he gets my No. 1 vote for Bulls f/bs.

Poor Nathan always gets it in the neck.

He was a decent player who was very badly let down by his fellow defenders in a cup final and sadly got an undeserved reputation because of it. He made one real 'mistake' in that match, which was the first 'bomb' he let go, and that would have gone dead 999,999,999 times out of a million (more or less

) and before it bounced and took that horrendous reverse rebound, I suspect 99% of fullbacks would have made exactly the same decision.



The other supposed 'missed catches' he never got near; overrun by Saints attackers and with no support from his team mates who didn't even do the basics. Maybe they were tired, I dunno but they could have moved towards where the ball was dropping and made the onrushing Saints players run around them, at the very least.



Still, never mind let's blame Nathan..

Not that he was ever going to win this poll, of course.

Alex Green, Burnden Park.

Withers first, he was so suited to the modern fullback role. Attacking wise he was superb, he read the game so well. Always got on the end of things. Defensively I can't recall any howlers at all. Sure, he was in a champion team but he stood out as safe as houses.



Spruce second. Good in attack and defence. Not as classy as Withers and a bit slow to turn when a kick went behind him. Other than that he was very good.



Mumby was the best of all time tho!







Thanks. I'd just got over the recurring nightmares.

Withers - first class



Kearney - not played as many games as the ex full backs but is simply superb



3rd would have been Sprogger. Im counting Robbie to be a half back even tho he played with num 1 on his back

jimmy 4 bradford how many games at full back did withers play? first year wing, second year centre, and then some injury prone years I would be surprised if withers actually played 30 games at full back.



Love how even with options provided and suggested as a super league full back - mumby still gets votes in near enough double figuires. For someone who honestly did not see him but has countless times been told how good he was in defence how was keith in attack? bearing in mind we talk of a modern full back how would he have coped?



Still think witers did not have enough games at full back to be voted for above spruce and with Kearney being touted as not played enough games and being signed as a 6.....
