[QUOTE="Saracenswulfpackdef, post: 998093, member: 83865"] It is just hard to make a disciplined judgement on these things. Some guys play at quite a different level compared to their best for a long time in their career. In extreme cases not corrobating a few absolutely outstanding displays by consistently performing at this level. The two lock forwards picked for Australia are a case in point. Morgan was outstanding on one European tour. Then his fitness deteriorated as he gained weight. So his carrying was not seen any more. For Waugh this could not even be assessed properly. He shone in the limelight in one saison. But was never picked any more. [/QUOTE]
