[QUOTE="saulan, post: 756460, member: 60236"] I feel like not enough credit is really given to his longevity in the national set up and his consistency throughout his career. He is the most capped international wing and the second most capped Springbok behind Captain Silverbeard Matfield. Even though he has had try scoring dry spells, he has always kept a high work rate, getting involved in defence, rucks and even turnovers. I think the lack of injuries is down to luck really, but keeping his pace over his 12 year international career. He may not have the ability to run over players, but he has a knack for being in the right place at the right time and has always been a dangerous runner. Is he our best player ever? I don't know, I think your comment is quite apt, once he has retired we will have a better idea as we currently focus on his latest career performances instead of keeping his 2007 heroics in mind and consistency. I think it is fair to say he is the best Springbok wing we have had and if I had to pick an all time RWC xv I would definitely have him in the back three (along with Lomu and Campese). [/QUOTE]
