    Difference for NZ in winning union and league World Cups

    I think SBW was the best 12 in his last year of rugby for the All Blacks.. He was not in 2011 for the WC though. You only need to look at how he players like Read offload the ball now, you can see how other teams do it as well.SBW had a massive impact in union. I Agree the Ab's as a team are the...

    Hookers

    Not disagreeing with your pecking order. But just curious to know , when have we had more talent at number 9, I think the bar has been raised over the last decade, so I think what is average now, would have been considered very good 10 years ago

    Old Trafford >>>>>>>>>anz

    Kings park in Durban is a great place to watch rugby , very close to the action even high up.

    Most talented position in the nrl

    On the fullback front, based on description, I think Churchill played a playmaker role setting up his wingers for there tries way back in the fifties. Russell fairfax played 10 for the wallabies, which would indicate he had that ability as well. I. Think the role is more uniform these days, but...

    Representative Rabbitohs

    I remember when Inglis came onto the scene, i thought this guy might turn out to be the greatest outside back I have seen. Slater is the best fullback. But GI is the more complete player, he is the best centre , he is the best winger and is up there as the best fullback over the last 7-8 years...

    Morris or Jennings best centre in the game?

    If Jennings is such a great centre , why did he bomb that try when Inglis came in cover, showed poor skill and a lack of compose , if that was, Lyon,Morris, or a Hodges it would have been try time. The guy is great ball runner, with average hands and limited vision. If that's a requirement to...

    Burgess Judiciary Charge from Round One, 2013

    Thought as much, which is a shame, as there was no malice in the tackle, careless yes, but gee carryover points. I don't know about that. But hey I can't think of a better solution though!

    Burgess Judiciary Charge from Round One, 2013

    To reduce his carry over points, what's the best option. I mean I would rather him mss the next game if it means he has a clean slate. I imagine it probably does not work this way though?

    Souths miss Dave Taylor

    Just like Idris did last year after he left the dogs.

    Auckland Nines

    I,m not sure how you would pull it off, but get some top line rugby players to be part of the tournament, to give it some further profile. Effectively a big bash type set up

    Souths chasing Matt Scott

    As good a prop as Scott is ,how old is he and will he be as effective in years time, he is not worth $600'000 a year to our team. Sure it would be great to have him in our side .i don't know about it. Gotta weigh up the pros and cons.

    Jennings Officially a Rooster.

    No mate its just a fact. Clearly you are blinded by the light

    Jennings Officially a Rooster.

    I can't see why there is so much hype about Jennings, he is a good player nothing more. He is quick with out being blinding, he can tackle but he won't scare anyone, he can pass, but not in any way shape or up there with the great centres who have played the game. He can't kick, he is not an...

    2013 Squad on paper looks like the Best since reinstatement

    I think our pack has good size about it. It think overall weight and size is not always the best indicator, speed and explosive ability come into the equation, Tallis was a good example of that, to a lesser extent SBW as well, whilst he ain't small he is not a giant either. Teo is an explosive...

    Wayne Bennett urged to endorse Adam Reynolds as NRL All Star as a rep 'trial run'

    Why is Reynolds not in the running for the indigenous side?

    Best backrow of the past decade

    There is a glut of good back rowers ,but a combination including interchange best of would be Gallen, Tallis, hindmarsh, fletcher and Menzies. But you could argue with fitzy, Kennedy ,mason and SBw and a host of others. J

    Players from your club who you have seen IN YOUR LIFETIME do it all

    I think you are right in that players like Daley, Stuart and Clyde were the young guns, played hard , did the hard yards etc, but Mal who by than was in his thirties was the player that all those boys looked up to. Daley and Clyde were the best players and Ricky was a gun halfback and the guy...

    Players from your club who you have seen IN YOUR LIFETIME do it all

    I think on the Raiders front Meninga was the heartbeat of the team, they looked likely in 95 and I reckon if he was good enough to go around again they probably would have won again, same with the eels with the loss of pricey(a bit of a princess at times, but great player nonetheless) and the...
