[QUOTE="Darwin, post: 610546, member: 24910"] I have to disagree. McCaw would have been just as effective back then, as it wasn't really that long ago that NZ had that side ('95/'96) - it was only a couple of seasons before McCaw made his debut for Canterbury. If anything I think he would have been much more effective back then than he was now, as around that time the rules really favored a pilfering openside, it's just few teams outside of New Zealand seemed to realize this ;) Indeed Josh Kronfeld main strength was his ability to turn over opposition ball at the breakdown (his support play was handy too) - and though Kronfeld was an exceptional player McCaw is in a different league......
