[QUOTE="RedruthRFC, post: 1004824, member: 58362"] Good to see a Kiwi perspective given that it seems like the answer is an AB (although I note a surprising amount of Sexton love). As I said, I was struggling to remember when Retallick's form started to dip. Maybe it's a confirmation bias, but it always struck me how much he was missed when he wasn't playing, possibly more so than any other player (ignoring ending up with Stephen Donald at 10 in a World Cup final!). Given how hard it is to show up as a star performer in the second row versus say, being a number eight hanging about on the wing, that's a strong argument for him IMO. [/QUOTE]
