Saw Alf at the airport in Sydney on Thursday and thought how he was such a great player, but seems really shy and humble. Happy to just be a runner for the Broncs and Queensland, while leaving the limelight for the other maroon greats.
Alfie should be an immortal he won 4 premierships as captain. He played 1 less test than johns except all of Alfie’s was at halfback. Won 2 world cups won many origin series. Was the first full time halfback to score 100 tries. Was the first man to captain his club, state and country to glory in the same year, multiple rule changes exclusively to slow him down. It’s an absolute disgrace Alfie isn’t an immortal.
Alfie won 4 premierships Mick Hancock won five
@@jacktattismick handcock wasn’t the catalyst for the team making the grandfinal or winning it. Alfie was. Kevin walters won 6 by the way.
@@troystaunton254 Good And Raper won 8 and Provan won 10
The immortal thing is basically a popularity contest anyway.
@@jacktattis OK cool story but you compared Mick Hancock the winger with a playmaker.
I remember when i was young and it was called australian rugby league (winfield cup) instead of nrl everyone my age all use to say langer when we would step or make a linebreak or throw a dummy 😂 alfie was the man back then thats what made me decide what team i liked and supported from 1991 till now 2024 its still go the mighty bronx!!!🐴
Beautiful, I pumped up a Queensland win on Andrew Moore radio show with Alfie back, mighty player,Immortal now like Irvine & Coote are, whilst experts say no hhh
2:22 seriously Freddy he played 23 tests. Many with you at 5/8 ffs.
Freddy is cooked. No wonder he lost 3 origin series with Cleary.
Freddy & joey both been sucking on the same bubble stick
What is Freddy smoking? He says Alf never played for Australia.. and they then go on to talk about Alfs test career for the next 5 mins
hahaha
That was just 5 minutes of disrespect towards Alfie. If you don’t know his stats, don’t talk about it
The fact Joey and Freddie played many tests with Alfie is the most shocking part. Hell the only reason they know he’s great company is because they played tests with him otherwise they were never on the same team.
WTF ? Stuart hardly got a run while Alfie was around in Test matches . Too many knocks to the head Fittler ?
Youd think neither of these 2 played in the 90s. They need to see their doctors.
How many concussions do you reckon they have between them
Alf vs Joey in Origins. 3 wins 2 losses 1 draw. We all now he flogged Freddy in his last game.
So much bias against Alf. In 98 he won as captain the prem, minor prem, Origin, international he beat Joey 3-1 and yet Joey got the golden boot that year.
Joey got the golden boot despite playing hooker and 5/8 around Alfie and losing the one game he played at halfback. It’s an absolute joke.
Allan Langer never played for Australia? Pffft... Hey Mat do you ever wonder why Yvonne Sampson left for greener pastures?
alf is getting disrespected here had just as much impact if not more than John's .....johns lost his spot to kimmorley
yeah, langer played for australia 25 times and stuart played 9 times.
And also had Geoff Toovey picked ahead of him at HB!
How does Freddy say he never played for Australia????
Probably on crack , look at the stuff he got up to off the field , just as bad as John’s
QUEENSLANDER FOR LIFE
Alfie, DID play for Australia!!
he played 25 times for australia, stuart played 9 times
Freddy and Joey forget when Alfie beat them 3 in a row in 1995😂
1995 was a great year, indeed! But Alfie (along with all the prospective "Super League" players at the time) were excluded from selection in the QLD and NSW sides, although the QLD lineup was far greatly affected. Adrian Lam was the QLD Halfback.
Langer played 25 times for Australia. Ricky Stuart played 9 times for Australia. These two commentators are fools.
Yep Ricky Stuart's rep career ended in 1994. Langer's test career ended in 1999 and Origin in 2002 despite being a year older than Ricky.
Alf> joey, Alf>freddy
what year did joey play 5/8 outside alfie?
he meant in 1999, joey played 9 tho not 6
Was is terry lamb between sterlo and sticky
No it was Alfie and Stuart played 8 tests Alfie played 23.
Total disrespect here by hosts of the show.
Never played for Australia? Freddie 😅
No wonder Freddy couldnt win Origin. He doesnt know the history of it even when he was part of that history. Numpty.
Too much time spent barefoot on the grass "absorbing the energy."
Please stop calling John’s the eighth, he should never been made an immortal. Alan Langer a much better player .
Total Agree the problem with the game back when John's was made an Immortal was NSW needed an ego bolster so Alfie got over looked
Pet boy for the establishment..NSW biased of course..
@@davidcruse843 The NSW media really pushed for it when NSW won the 2005 origin series when Johns came back after 9 games in 2 years or something. Langer of course had no such thing happen when he came from England in 2001 to win the series for Queensland. Just goes to show, the whole thing is a popularity contest.
