Thoughts?
Hmmmm, well initial thoughts are the Crusaders have done incredibly well when one considers who has been on the wings for them....

Firstly, how fucking white is that team?
Todd Blackadder is obviously the troll selection.
How is this team getting itself over the advantage line? And where are the wheels to finish.
I expected this team to be better to be honest.

It’s an all Maori back three at least but yes not an abundance of hard running tackle busters. Some guys beat more defenders in a single game than Thorne and Ralph managed their whole careers...

@mariner4life at Super level Rangi was one of the top tackle bust backs. Recall a couple of seasons he was only behind Nonu in that area.
Would have Brad Thorn ahead of Blackadder and Jack. Jack on the bench.

@mariner4life I don’t know what colour has to do with selections

I believe he's alluding to the fact that most other "all time" selections have an abundance of Polynesians.
Possibly not the best choice of words in light of recent events there though.

Nadolo,Rico Gear are other wing options I would have thought
What does Nadolo have to do with this?

Norm Berryman instead of Caleb Ralph? Or Rico Gear?
Caleb’s try scoring record at Super level was pretty impressive and given he made the ABs...
