Australian rugby league legend whose electric speed, brilliant reading of the play and consistent excellence across 15 seasons for Melbourne and Queensland established him as the finest fullback the game has ever seen.
Billy Slater is Australia's greatest fullback in rugby league history, a three-time Dally M Medal winner who combined exceptional finishing ability with elite defence and dynamic ball-running from the back. A key figure in Melbourne Storm's dynasty, his nine State of Origin series with Queensland and his role in Australia's international dominance cemented his place as the finest fullback the game has seen.
