[QUOTE="scuubasteve, post: 131782"] Potentially, sure he's the best. Currently, its hard to say. Here's an interesting website for comparing match statistics from the Super 14. I know that stats aren't the be all and end all, but you can compare Spies here to players from the other teams he faced. [url="http://www.sarugby.com/news/Stats_Centre.html"]http://www.sarugby.com/news/Stats_Centre.html[/url] Tuiali'i (who I thought was one of the best Kiwi No.8's in the Super 14) put up a good showing in the Crusader v Bulls game. He had twice as many carries, twice as many metres gained, more line breaks, more tackles, less missed tackles and less turnovers conceded. So maybe speed, strength and versatility doesn't make you the world's best player. Just ask Ma'a Nonu. [/QUOTE]
