Great defender, great kicker under pressure, gives confidence to his team - best five-eight for Eng's style of play and they grow an extra leg when he's on the field

However, he's certainly not the best five-eight and never has been as with ball in hand he's pretty average

The myth surrounding him is largely a media beat-up and takes away from the fact that his forwards won the last WC and if Eng had Larkham or Spencer the game wouldnt have made it anywhere near extra time with the quality of posession they enjoyed
