In other predictable news, the sun also rose this morning.
Not saying it wasn't predictable I'm just saying he's reached incredible new heights.

Im ok with this. The rugby landscape is changing. I doubt many true rugby brains up in the NH would agree with his team. Thats why im ok with it. He's becoming irrelevant.
There are probably 3-4 teams you could construct, using minimal effort, with only 2 good ABs that could beat his team. He's a joke and the longer he posts shit like this the faster we are rid of him.

He has to, otherwise he'd just be repeating his same old stuff
Stephen Jones bingo would have about 15 predictable bullshit statements and assertions... -
Jones can pick who he wants. Simon Shaw would seem his most eccentric choice. My team is better.
Best Players Sparky has seen (ie since 1983):
1 Os Du Randt (South Africa) 2. Sean Fitzpatrick (New Zealand) 3 Pascal Ondarts (France) 4 John Eales (Australia) 5 Brodie Retallick (New Zealand) 6 Richard Hill (England) 7 Richie McCaw (New Zealand) 8 Buck Shelford (New Zealand) 9 Joost van der Westhuizen (South Africa) 10 Dan Carter (New Zealand) 11 Jonah Lomu (New Zealand) 12 Maa Nonu (New Zealand) 13 Danie Gerber (South Africa) 14 David Campese (Australia) 15 Serge Blanco (France)
16 Phil Kearns (Australia) 17 Steve McDowell (New Zealand) 18 Jason Leonard (England) 19 Martin Johnson (England) 20 Michael Jones (New Zealand) 21 Nick Farr-Jones (Australia) 22 Jonny Wilkinson (England) 23 Jeff Wilson (New Zealnd) -
any team without Christian Cullen at 15 isnt worth my time reading it
-
It's not bad work really, but i reckon he's gone just a little too far. If he had dialed it back by 1 or 2 players he would have snared thousands more
-
It’s probably about right since he said it’s based on the players he’s seen, which is why there’s no Irish or French players in it.
I mean there’s no Girv the Swerve Dempsey in here ffs!
-
I am shocked, shocked i tell you, that he hasn't picked Retallic

-
Ha.
His justification for picking Campese over Lomu - Lomu was great at his peak, but didn't have the longevity.
Justification for picking Warburton over McCaw/Pocock/Hooper - Warburton didn't have the longevity, but at his peak he was great.
He's not even pretending to be serious any more. -
"Best players he's ever seen."
Confirming he watches no rugby...
