I would have to find a place for Duncan McKenzie.
McKenzie was epic, capable of running rings around the best defenders. However, despite his skills, he could be an immensely frustrating player to watch. While he reserved his finest moments for big games, he was often anonymous against lesser opposition. At his best though, Magic. After Alan Ball, one of my top players.
My Dad always tells me a story about where he ran the width of the pitch, got to the other side and then turned round and did it again.
with the ball presumably.......
I saw him as great but not an all time great sort of player.
I watched that side a lot but I was quite young (going to Goodison with my Dad), so it's true I wouldn't be the best judge at that age. If someone tells me he was head and shoulders above other right backs playing at that time I'm happy to take their word for it.
Who would be the other names in the frame for all time Everton right backs?

Warney Cresswell, Alex Parker and Tommy Wright. All far superior to Stevens.
TG Jones was our best ever centre-half and Joe Mercer was possibly our greatest ever player. He was very dynamic as a youngster and then, when the idiots running the club forced him out, he went on to win titles and cups for Arsenal and also won 'footballer of the year' despite the fact that his knees had gone. Tommy Lawton was a better footballer than Dixie Dean and I would also prefer Bobby Collins to Alan Ball. Cliff Britton deserves a mention too, he was an outstanding half-back.
Martyn over Southall mate?
fraid so.
Was Ray Wilson the best in the world?
