| Ive got Massive respect for the Boks Luan. They are by far the All Blacks toughest opponent throughtout the history of the game. The rest are really Selected on World Rankings and I think the Balance of my team represents that. Maybe we should put this team up against a NH one and then get a little more Balance from there but IMO and Im sorry if I offends but a NH player would struggle to make my "Starting" line up. There are some great players up there including England: Wilko, Tindle, Monye (who I like), Ben Kay, France: Chabal, Thierry Dusautoir, Médard, Dupuy Wales: Hook, Williams, R Jones Ireland: Paul O'Connell, O'Gara, O'Driscoll, but being able to be the best in that position in the world, SH dominates. |

| Froggy do you honestly think that thorn is better than Bakkies? Or am i just being biased cos i think Bakkies is better than thorn. Jake White measured the work rate of the bok forwards and bakkies had the second highest work rate after burger. bakkies gets thru a lot of work. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Probably add Thorne to the NZ group. I know I have more AB's than Boks, and the Boks were clearly better this year. It simply means the Boks were better as a unit, rather than individuals. Froggy |

| This is not a team as such, but my idea of who's world class among the current SH sides SA Habana, De Villiers, Du Prees, Spies, Matfield NZ Mills, Sivi, Carter, McCaw, Woodc@#k, Hayman Aus Smith, Elsom, Robinson I might be a tough judge, and I know some positions are doubled up, but it's just my judgement of the players.

| Geraint You use the term "world class" rather loosely I think. I guess if we picked a world 22 squad the players in it would be world class. I mean Phillips world class????? CAN WE AS A MESSAGE BOARD come up with a world 22 and hence agree on who is world class? NOMINATE PLAYERS HERE kip |
