[QUOTE="bushytop, post: 946025, member: 56738"] I find it hard to pick an outright best from Gareth Edwards and JVDW. Being born in 1979, my early years were filled with my Grandfather playing the videos of Wales, the Lions and the BaaBaas of the 70's. He literally worshipped Edwards and would pause, rewind and replay moment after moment to explain in great detail what the maestro was doing and why it was effective. Then, in my teens JVDW was my favourite player of that particular era... regardless of the fact that he ALWAYS seemed to score against Wales. Both players had all the tools, great delivery, speed, power, vision etc. but what I feel separates them from all the rest was the will to be victorious. The amount of times both have single-handedly snatched victory from the jaws of defeat is incredible. Absolute legends, the pair of them [/QUOTE]
