I'm 50, I've followed rugby league my entire life and played it for 17 years. Billy Slater was the best fullback I've ever seen.

[@jameseast294]

Watch Bowen highlights. Slater is a snooze fest in comparison.

[@ray.shoesmith]

@@jameseast294 There are plenty who are flashier, none who are consistently better over an entire career

[@jameseast294]

@@ray.shoesmith Lol, Bowen was better, simple as that. Unless you decide by stats, which is not fair as Slater was on a better team. Put Bowen in the Melbourne team, and his breaking every record there is. Bowen is on par with Thurston. Not many cowboys fans pick Thurston over Bowen. These two are like the modern day wally and langer.

[@ray.shoesmith]

@@jameseast294 How many origins Bowen play at fullback? How many test matches?

[@jameseast294]

@@ray.shoesmith So your only argument is being picked for origin and Australia? Instead of how good each play the game? I think slater is around 4th best ever. Bowen 3rd best ever. Greg inglis 1st, Turbo Tom second. Let me guess you think slater is better than Greg inglis at fullback too?

[@stickdude0299]

I like how you show how good defensively slater is as well as attacking

[@nigelandandi453]

Stickdude 02 and they didn't even include his try assists which makes him even more deadly

[@sirjezzumz]

greatest fullback to play the game.

[@BigBeNRiChTV]

Without a doubt

[@ratro84]

Yep Billy was the first fullback to play like a five eight. Now you have to be able to do it to get the position.

[@giantsplayer1145]

i am a billy fan for life i love hes passion and commmitment for his team and state BILLY THE KING SLATER

[@maxlyons995]

sirjezzumz *second best sorry but Inglis is better

[@harrisonledger1040]

A true legend. There are some other good fullbacks but Billy is just an incredible talent. Sad to see him go.

[@scottymclaren3582]

I’d say the best fullbacks of all time would be:- 1) Billy Slater In a close second Brett Mullins

[@secretguyoz2]

If Ray Warren thinks he's the best he's seen then I agree. Class act, great career Billy, congrats.

[@matonatomic]

Gus Gould AND Joey Johns said the same thing, the best Fullback they've ever seen.

[@siennathecoolest8290]

I love him ❤️❤️ Jt, and slater are my fave players.

[@phoenixgates5305]

You gotta do one of Greg Inglis

[@maxlyons995]

Phoenix Gates YES

[@jshan1457]

Best player in the world.

Absolute sensational player, needs to be immortalised!!!

[@karllarry9390]

1:02 this is my favourite move ever, call it a circle work. Has never failed when ran correctly.

[@DentemaxAustralia]

He's is the best nrl player in the world and I no so much about him because this Australian sport and I'm Australian and in Australia he plays for storms maroons and kangaroos

[@R-vl9ue]

Not storms..Storm ⚡⚡👌

[@rhyssullivan8071]

The fact he missed almost 2 years, then came back and was still the best fullback in the world shows how good Billy the Kid was

[@nevilledanawe3344]

Early in Billy's career, the Storm were set to play the Dragons in Wollongong. I went to the university sports centre for a game of tennis with my mate. I walked into the foyer with my racquet slung over my shoulder and ran into Billy with what appeared to be 2 trainers/officials. As I approached I called out "Billy Slater." He and the officials turned around and to my surprise the officials had a look of serious concern on their faces. Billy just smiled. I told him that I thought he was a champion, shook his hand and wished him luck against the Dragons. It was only later when I was pondering the encounter that I realised why the officials were concerned. Imagine two big guys with tennis racquets slung over their shoulder approaching one of your star players. It makes me laugh when I think about it now.

[@serudoloka9519]

I miss watching Billy play😢

When I compare Billy Slater against Matt Bowen Matty is far more skilfull had all the kicking game passing individual brilliance and was actually faster.

[@LTBros_]

Incredible player, incredible edit. We need this publisher to come out of retirement!!!

[@danielb3028]

15 years is solid. Only Benji and Cam topping that. There may be others, forgive my drunkenness.

[@monicaglare4606]

Love it billy Slater is excellent at nrl

[@MuFFiNMaN69_]

Tom Hardy looks like Billy Slayter

[@giteausuperstar]

how does state of origin work? thought it was QLD vs NSW but Slater plays for Melbourne?? I'm not Aussie, as you can probably tell!

[@giteausuperstar]

***** ok so it's where the player is born/raised rather than which team he plays for?

[@King_Fi5h]

+giteausuperstar greg inglis was born and raised in NSW. What is he doing there?

[@daichidallas790]

+tuna Hirlakoglu it's where you played your first senior game Inglis was in Queensland

[@robertmcgahey9932]

+Daichi Dallas It's actually where you play your first u16 rep game, at the time, he had been selected for the Bowraville/Hunter Sports team but instead relocated with his family and started playing for Wavell high on the gold coast But it goes both ways NSW second best halfback in Peter Sterling was born and grew up Toowoomba, it goes both ways, much like the sims brothers who grew up together and align with different states Very grey, needs to be more set guidelines and followed

[@mitchellcooper7545]

giteausuperstar so origin is QLD vs NSW 3 games every year, to be eligible to play for that state you have to play junior footy with that state, so therefore slater is from QLD so is eligible to play

[@jamescharles4114]

2:33 JT Lol.

[@konfoooshus6209]

You always hear about Cameron Smith & Billy Slater as being future immortals, & even having a statue outside the ground in Melbourne. Cooper is always the poor relation & left out. Yes Smith & Slater are great, but while Smith was taking the conversions, who was always talking to the team, getting ready for the next play, & keeping their minds on the job. Who delivered most of the passes & kicks which made so many other Storm players look so good? ...... and who has been to a second club & been a big part of them winning a premiership? I'm not a Storm, Roosters, or Maroons fan, but Cooper Cronk= class, decency, skill, a great role model for kids, & top level performance under pressure. Which of the other 2 can tick all those boxes?

[@James-jk2cr]

What a legend this man was I've met him twice in Qld
