Better than decent. Absolute gun who would have played 100 Tests for any other country, or if he was born 10 years earlier or 20 years later. As good a fieldsman as Mark Waugh too, and I don't say that lightly.
That's a big big call. Not seen a better fieldsman than Mark Waugh. Seen some awesome ones likes Jonty Rhodes, Viv Richards and Ricky Ponting but Mark Waugh made it often look so easy to catch some balls most others would not get near. Glenn Maxwell and AB de Villiers will be good to review in 5 years time and in his day Allan Border threw down the stumps with a throw better than anyone. Pity I did not see enough of Siddons play but he was a stylish bat when saw him a few times.
