Why should i have to justify my choice to the likes of you i don't know I'm not sure why people are choosing tomkins over radlinski why not pick up on that one
I think hes just asking the question pal, no ulterior motives.
I suppose the thread is subjective as it says favourite players, not best etc.
On our WhatsApp group I picked Richard's and Dallas over Robinson, mainly because they both played 6/7/8 seasons at the DW whereas robinson only one.
I wouldn't for a second say either were better than Robinson.
I picked carmont and gildart over Connolly and renouf, mainly because they've won more and played far more at the DW so more than likely going to have given me more moments. Neither of them match Connolly & Renouf over their whole careers
I debated Mickey Mac over Newton as hes won more, but I just went for Newton as he did play a lot of games and I remember more "Highlights".
As I say "All subjective" and my guess is that the reply was because the poster thinks that newton/barrett/Faz were better players (which i would agree with), but that want the question so everyone is entitled to their own favourites.
