| Schofield by some distance. And I'd put Gregory Lydon myler all above Edwards, good club Player in a dominante side.

Seriously, Tony Myler was a much more talented player than Schofield and it's only his injury record that stopped him becoming an all-time great.

| Schoey by a decent margin. Respect to Edwards no doubt but not in the same class.
Certainly it's clear that the one eyed monster is out with the back biting, whatever people dislike about him and his outburst/comments after he stopped playing not recognising his talent on the back of that is utterly ridiculous..
Personally I couldn't stand Andy Gregory as a player but I'd never deny his talent just because I had issues with his personality and the way he went about things on the field.
I'd probably have Davies in front of Schofield for all round talent/skill though

| Schofield by far. Did it in Australia and against them, something Edwards didn't. Edwards simply isn't respected by the Aussies. The only "advantage" Edwards ever had was in his team mates.

| Schofield was a much better 6. Gregory was a much better 7. Edwards is a much better person. Think that covers it.

I thought it was about the abilities of two players.
To be honest if you want to include a third player I never rated Andy Gregory he was a throw back to an era long gone in his playing days, certainly at Test level. His style and build/physique
was from the 60's

| Schofield for me had everything you want from a too class international player.skillful and exciting and could turn a game in a flash, when he finished his career at the galpharm he had lost his pace but his skills,brain and trickery were still there.
Edwards on the other hand although a very good player himself was a grafter in a very good side who often steamrollered opposition, but schoey was the far better player for me.

Tony was probably a fine player but he did not stand out at Test level against Australia.
In 14 Test matches he scored one try. The players in the same position for Oz, Kenny and Lewis were tearing it up.
With Balmain in 12 starts he scored one try.
Balmain played him off the bench in 1986 in their two Finals games preferring the "Gary Bridge" at Stand off.
Would of, could of, should of, its a British thing it seems.
Myler and Holding 0 from 2
Myler and Fox 0 from 2
Myler and Gregory 0 from 1

It's obvious Schofield had more ability that Edwards. Only Hanley was above him in that era.
You're misremembering or underrating Gregory because of what he looked like. He was superb at test level and still would be in today's game because the speed, range and timing of his distribution was ridiculously good.

I thought he was ok and a stop gap to be honest.
Players in his position should control a game and make things happen, he was not that quick beyond 5 yards and nowhere near as good as the players against him at Test level.
He played against
Peter Sterling
Alan Langer
Ricky Stuart
Legends of the game in key positions.
All good we each have our opinions on everything.
