You can only be a great in the era you played. Players today are full time professionals making good coin. Back in the old days they had regular jobs trained a couple of nights a week and played on Saturday. It's hard to compare I agree but I'm sure the greats of yesterday would be great players today.

Exactly mate.
Imagine KB doin today’s pre-season, eating a bowl
of pasta on Friday night instead of a piece of flake, 5 potato cakes and chips and having a massage and ice bath and being that much quicker as athletes are today. They’d change 7 rules to stop him.
70s, 80s, 90s champs would be so much better

Agree KB would be a champion in any era. I actually live not far from KB and can confirm he still likes his fish and chips. Have seen him at the local chippery a few times over the years.
