| Iro & Bell weren't bad either (Miles was brilliant but only for a very short time sadly)

But they were probably more "strike" centres.
Every winger outside Gleeson scored tries, he and Carmont were more "wingers" centres.

Forgot about Kevin (the beast) yep him anf Bell.
Picked Miles because of his 1 season and he made Offiah so many tries ,a true wingers centre.

| Gidley was the best wingers centre I’ve ever seen. Made a superstar of Ady Gardener!

| Connolly and Inga for me
but...
when you delve into the possibilities
H. Paul - FB, Centre, Halves
Connolly - FB, Centre, Wing
Radlinski - FB, Centre, Wing
Robinson, FB, Wing, Halves
Inga, Centre, Wing
Edwards, FB, Halves
Botica, FB, Wing, Centre, Halves
All played in the same era, the team wasn't weakened if you moved them all around. Imagine having that option now. We grumble about 1 player moving position these days.All world class players.

You were also the only pro team so cherry picked all the great players!

I was only young but old enough.
I’ve never seen a centre do what he could ball in hand.
His ability to take contact from 2 and 3 defenders, take them out if the game and still offload to his winger was ridiculous and something he did consistently not just every now and again.
Lyon was the next best that I have seen in the SL era but still a long way short of Miles.
