Best number 8 ?

[Sixesandsevens]

YEas, he was. So have been Ryean Jones, Parisse and Harinordoquy. Read hasn't, though only the blokes at the IRB know why...

Isnt it because he isnt as good?

 

[TRF_Olyy]

I don't think you can say Heaslip is a one trick pony
Before his recent dip in form (which he seems to have gotten/be getting over) he was up there with Parisse/Read easily
Great talent, and will show himself to be one of the best in the RWC
Certainly a step above some of the others in the list

I'd have say O'Brien ahead of Messam, Masoe, Jones, Easter and probably Stowers.

Yeah but i thing O'brian doesn't count because he usually plays flanker doesn't he

 

[big ginger 8]

He does yeah but so does Messam anytime he's played there but he's got as I've said IMO the best 8 in the world ahead of him.
