Leulaui was great at what he did, but Prohm was comfortably the better all-round player.



Both great attackers, but Prohm was also strong enough to play loose-forward and was a magnificent defender.



He is the reason why none other than Gary Schofield failed to score even a single Derby try in 12 attempts!

prohm was a better all round player as he was more versatile but I'd say leuluai just edged being the better centre

Gary Prohm ...my fav player - period!!!

Ur not wrong there he was totally fab

Same - you didn't have names on the back of your shirt in those days, but I had a 4 on the back of my shirt, I'm even on video somewhere when interviewed on Scrumdown or RL Action as a teenager being asked who my favourite player was and saying Gary Prohm

As a kid growing up, watching Rovers and playing the game, I wanted to [ibe[/i Gary Prohm.



Unfortunately, it turned out, I couldn't be.

If only the t'interweb was around in the 80's, we could have had Prohmstalker!

Playing for your country must be the slide rule so here goes.



Leuluai, caps 29, tries 14, points 51. Played between 79 to 86.



Prohm, caps 23, tries 4, points 12. Played between 78 to 86..



I'm biased of course but IMO Jimmy Leuluai was better. If anyone can be bothered to find the Hull, Rovers facts and figures for each player, I would like to see them.

Prohm had power and pace in abundance, he actualy played on the wing once or twice when he first came over but made his name as a centre, especialy during that season when he scored forty odd ( forget the actual number) tries, great player and a real nice guy off the pitch also.

Flawed logic in the extreme.

Prohm played a variety of positions for the Kiwis .

But if try scoring is your measure as that post alludes too then Prohm scored 45 tries in a single season for Rovers

Leuluai didn't get near that figure but was a classy centre.

Prohm however had everything in his locker, was as quick if not quicker,stronger,better defender and turned David Laws into an international winger

prohm headed off to the nrl whilst leuluai went to leigh and doncaster.
