      There's no contest. Jared by a zillion miles.

        JWH is the best prop to ever play for the club in my opinion. I rate him ahead of Beetson.

        I also consider Toups as our greatest winger.

          Silly question.

          I vote for Dallas Hood.

          Lowrie and Hermanson went alright for us in a weak side.

            Jazz, without question. Best prop since Beetson, and arguably on a par with the immortal one when you consider his longevity and consistency over those 13 seasons.

            Special mention to SST. For a year or two there he was probably the best prop in the game. Pity his knees didn't hold up.

              Who are the greatest props to ever play the game from any club?
              Lazarus? Petero? The Chief? Jesse Bromwich? Blocker? Webcke?

              None of them are as good as Jared. Not even Artie.

                The poll is about he modern era........ which in itself indicates that there is NO QUESTION about the best prop of ANY ERA.

                JWH wins it by the length of the straight.

                But seriously....

                There are some ridiculous comments here.

                JWH is very good, probably the equal of Morley.

                Not as skillful as Salvatori, and NOT IN THE SAME STREET AS ARTIE.

                Beetson is a legend, the BEST Prop from any team in any era.

                I first saw him in 1966 when he just about beat a ferocious pommy pack single handed.

                15 years later he captained Queensland to a win in the first Origin game

                They played EIGHTY MINUTES back then.

                He was the strongest, the most skillful and probably the quickest prop in the game for 14 years.

                He created more tries in one season that Jared will do in his entire career.

                I love Jared, he's the best prop of the modern NRL era, no question...... but he is no Beetson.

                  Couldn't agree more, JWH wins that poll in Secretariat fashion and is up with Webcke and Petro as the best since Lazarus but Artie was in a different league.
                  Artie is the greatest forward of all time to have ever laced a boot on.

                    No point trying to compare Artie and JWH the eras are too far apart. Now is all about the power running and trying to get a quick play the ball. None of that back then, it was all proper scrums, 5m instead of 10m, and lots of biffo. I think Jared would have had fun back then but he would have been playing a totally different game.

                        is this even debatable?

                        underrated guys were Jason Cayless, Peter Cusack and imo Ian Rubin

                          Rubs haha he should have been 20 times better than he was with his size and power!

                          Next you will be throwing Scotty Logan and the Pillow into the mix!

                            They were very good for a few years for us - then got a few injuries unfortunately. If the rest of the team were any good we could of went somewhere on the back of those two.

                              JWH would eat Salvatori any day of the week he was a good prop but not in the upper echelon and as much as I love Adrian Morley Jarred has surpassed him a long time ago. In artie's era they played 80 minutes in a significantly slower paced game than we see today, NRL today makes classic origin contests seem in slow motion so those eras can't be compared. Some would say Ray Stehr was a lot better than Artie.
