Thanks CP.

Question - how many of our current squad would get into the 1995 Cup Final Team?

Second question - How many current SL players would get into that team?

Without thinking not many, if any. Lockers maybe as a workhorse second rower. Not sure the RL of 2009 is as enjoyable as 1995 irrespective of who plays it. I think Australia from 86 to 94 had awesome groups of players and we had a quality crop of players. I was thinking when we played Cas is Shenton or Gleeson or Atkins anywhere near Connolly or Newlove were as players or Kevin Iro.
