Analysis: Where does Tedesco sit in the great fullback debate with Slater? | MichaelChammas app85

James Tedesco will go down as one of the greatest fullbacks to ever play the sport but NSW Blues legend Andrew Johns says he still work to do to catch Billy Slater as the greatest of all time.has broken down the numbers, comparing the feats of 29-year-old Tedesco to those of Slater before the age of 30. The statistics make for a compelling discussion.

By the age of 30, Slater had won a Dally M Medal for the best player in the NRL, a Wally Lewis Medal for player of the State of Origin series, and also racked up two fullback of the year awards.Tedesco also has two premierships to his name. While Slater played in three grand final-winning teams by the age of 30, only one of them stands in the record books after the Melbourne Storm were stripped of two premierships for systematic salary cap breaches.

Injured Manly fullback Tom Trbojevic has formed a close bond with Tedesco over the years. He wouldn’t be drawn into comparisons between the Blues captain and the Queensland coach but paid tribute to the influence Slater had on the current crop of fullbacks in the NRL.
