Springboks V All Blacks

@antipodean Possibly, but Pollard stood up and performed well against the best team in the world twice so he gets the nod for me.

@antipodean I saw another best of team that had Sanchez at 10...
Think it was Karl T, Marx, Franks, Etzebeth, Mostert, du Toit, Pocock, Read, Faf, Sanchez, Crotty, Goodhue, Ioane, Dyanti, Le Roux

@kirwan Hell know. He is not a winger. He needs some space and locked close to the touch line with no where to go he will have little impact.
He's a great finisher, and with his pace he'd be good on the wing. Especially as a Jane like second fullback, where he could join the line and pick his mismatches that he likes.
Watching the reviews of the game, where the gameplan of the Boks was to kick deep to us all the time, I think he would create more than Naholo (and catch more for that matter).

I can't complain about much in that team, other than Bono Cockwomble. WTF do people see in him?

@antipodean yeah was my thoughts too...

I acknowledge he's awesome at that, but his defence is unbelievably passive for a guy with his build, possibly because he's looking to make turnovers. But you can get turnovers by driving forward in defence. And how often does he manage to make that turnover translate into a counter attacking opportunity? Hardly ever.

The thing for me that while his top end may not like Naholo, he gets to his top speed in the blink of an eye and I find with that and his elusiveness he can put others away with ease.

Especially when Kolisi was all kinds of awesome in the games I watched.
