Best of all time?

S’funny but Rory rarely gets mentioned in the discussion about England’s greatest wingers, recency bias I guess, but he was a gun winger for sure.

Really, I'd have thought he'd be the first wing on the team sheet? Or Alexander Oblensky.

PS I'm thinking picking Burger is the equivalent of picking Parisse ...
Dito previous coment. Have you actually watched him?
Was he a standout in the competitive club games? The sort of player everyone said his performances for the Bulls meant South Africa was missing out?

@ACT-Crusader I'd swap Ralph for Berryman.
You would, Mr North Auckland…😉
Love Stormin, but Ralph’s Saders record was pretty phenomenal in terms of longevity and try scoring.
Will Jordan over Gear and it's not close. Sevu over Vuni as well.

Gear’s strike rate for us was right up there, 30 tries. Jordan is on the right trajectory to get past that but not quite there yet.

@ACT-Crusader Larkham > Merhts.
Yeah, nah. Lomu, Cullen and Tana didn’t score all those tries without Mertz running that cutter 😎

According to Wikipedia he's already past it. 35 tries from 43 appearances compared to Rico's 30 from 40.
Sevu just broke the overall Super record for fastest to 40 tries and is 43 from 53, so Will is on track to take that off him. By the end of this season would be nice.

That amount of tries in a losing performance should be entertaining.

lol, as a Chiefs guy this sort of chat is hilarious "oh, which multiple-title winning player should i leave out?" "which absolute international superstar can't get a gig?"
we are the heartland championship of Super Rugby. Our overall record is just so deeply average. Our "hall of fame" looks like a "Rugby Battlers" facebook page.

Todd MillerBench is too hard. Try picking props FFS? Would definitely have Luaki and Cruden on it though.

@mariner4life What did Retallick and TKB do to you?

they left in their primes so fuck 'em
Yes i know Retallick was a sabbatical but that is arguably worse consider he then proceeded to come back and suck
i told you, these things are way more interesting when you go heart over head

what bench? and even i am not crazy enough to have a bench with zero lock cover so i can put another 7 on the bench.
Also i assume we're playing the Crusaders so Lauaki has to play.

@gt12 He had to get Ormond in there somehow.
keep his name outcha goddam mouth
first on the team sheet
-
@mariner4life How many games did he actually play?
DMac is the Chiefs all-time points scorer so would have to be the fullback.
