[QUOTE="nzlizard, post: 764959, member: 70865"] In regards to McCaw being the best, well he most probably is. Not just from an AB's fan perspective, but listen to the international rugby community talk, most current and former players rate him as the best, I have been watching rugby for 35 years and no one comes close to achieving the consistently high performance he has put in over the years, he is so fit he is a machine, how many times has he single handily saved his team, more than any other player. His record speaks for himself. Dan didn't get to be the top point scorer in rugby for no reason, not sure he is the 2nd best best player ever but he would be in that elite group to pick from. Kinda funny how some of the NH fans are coming in here criticizing the game and the style of rugby, where are your teams playing this weekend? oh wait they aren't, England didn't make it out of the pool and the rest went home in the 1st knockout round. Was an interesting AB's performance, I have to admit at half time I was so worried we were going to lose, we looked so out of shape, then in the second half we kinda found our feet. It was exactly the type of game I was expecting, hard fought and a few points in it, SA never looked like scoring a try and we could have had a couple more, but our discipline kept letting us down, no way we can afford to do that next week. We will need to up our game something chronic if we want to win next week, esp in the discipline department. [/QUOTE]
