Let me start with a couple of easy, though parochial ones:

- Laurie Kettlewell in the also-rans, while Doug Green and Derek Chadwick make it;

- Ocker at #36.

NFW!

Not sure the number has much significance.
One could also ask why Greg Brehaut is not there.
The list is a very good one.

Not picking a team just the best 40 players.
The great Merv Mac also there.
Also includes the great Jack Clarke.
For me Merv was the greatest.
Okay maybe behind Farmer.

I heard Barry Cable once say he thought Laurie Kettlewell was the best player he played against.

I think Barry Cable has more pressing issues at the moment if the latest press is anything to go by.

Gee BC, its one of those things, how do you say something without saying something. I liked the actor Walter Brennan, didn't he play a cop in some show.
