[JJR]

We should try and rate guys that 90 is like one of the best players in history...like Fifa. Not even Fifa guys reach 90 rating.

 

[JJR]

How would macaw get 95 rating? Speed-70 max strength- 75 fetching- 90 tackling-80 ball carrying-70-75...etc...how can he get to 95? Never...

 

[dan the man]

Regardless of what McCaw gets, everyone else in the game will have a lower rating cause he's the best player in the world!!!

 

[brusselsbarbarian]

21. Stephen Donald - 4

made me chuckle, because it's true.

 

[dan the man]

made me chuckle, because it's true.

Haha, maybe he should get about 80 when he plays for Waikato or the Chiefs, but when he pulls on the black jersey he drops to about 60

[Faatau82]

What i'd like to see is the system fifa has, where players start at a set rating, and improve as the game goes on. So a player like Ben Foden would start at 81 and develop to maybe 89 or something. This is a great thing in fifa as you recruit younger players and develop them and in rugby that'd work very well.

Also the rating could drop according to form in the last 5 games. So like has been said, Stephen Donald could reach 82, but if he has a poor run of games, his rating will drop. Also, World Rankings would be a nice touch. Basically, live team and player ratings. They don't have to be real-time, but can be realistic to the game.

i agree, but this should only work in season mode. i think this thread is for the default ratings.

 

[JJR]

Ritchie is the most overrated player i know...all he does well is make a bladdy mess of the breakdown...that is pretty much it. Heinrich Brussouw is a proper fetcher...ritchie is the spoiler and gets away with it just because he has a (C) next to his name. Best players in the world Dan carter (as much as i hate to say it),fourie du preez, Victor Matfield and Mils Muli.

 

[TVH11]

The way of working out ratings obviously is a bit vague atm so i've waited a bit to see what people have been saying about their own sides, and then going from that. Any other welshies out there are more than welcome to help me out with my ratings (may be extremely biased to my region )

Wales - trying to be as non biased as possible (Form has been poop as of the last year and a bit but still a load of players that are "top tier" performers - At least Northern Hemisphere). Saying a starting lineup for us is a bit tricky atm cause Gatland is chopping and changing every game but this is "my" starting 15 anyways.

1. Gethin Jenkins 84
2. Mathew Rees 82
3. Adam Jones 86/7 (if the bench mark so far for everyone with tightheads is 86 then i'm going with that for adam cause he's arguably one of the best 3's in the World
4. Bradley Davies 82
5. Alun-Wyn Jones 81
6. Dan Lydiate/Ryan Jones 81 (Same thing as below but different emphasis on stats - Ryan may even be 2nd row)
7. Martyn Williams/ Sam Warbuton 82 (same kinda rating but emphasis on different stats)
8. Jonathan Thomas 81
9. Mike Phillips 81
10. Stephen Jones 80
11. Shane Williams 85/6 (this is one which even my fellow country men will debate heavily over, but i still feel that he's world class, even if he's getting on. Without him Wales or ospreys have no spark)
12. Jamie Roberts 84
13. James Hook 84
14. Lee Halpenny/George North 81
15. Lee Byrne - 80 (Form over last year has been crap but still by the world cup will be half decent, at least i hope)

The Ospreys (Again theres only a few club sides been posted so far so i can't really compare to much - so i'll compare to what munsterman rates his squad cause the ospreys and munster seem evenly matched)

1. Paul James 80
2. Richard Hibbard 79
3. Adam Jones 86
4. Ryan Jones 81
5. Alun-Wyn Jones 81
6. Jerry Collins 82
7. Marty Holah 83
8. Jonathan Thomas 81
9. Mike Phillips 81
10. Dan Biggar 79
11. Shane Williams 85/6
12. James Hook 84
13.Andrew Bishop 80
14. Tommy Bowe 84/5
15. Lee Byrne 80

 

[Duckdee]

I'm going to round to the nearest 5.

1 Marcos Ayerza 80
2 George Chuter 70
3 Martin Castrogiovanni/Dan Cole 80
4 Louis Deacon 65
5 George Skivington 75
6 Tom Croft 85
7 Craig Newby 70
8 Jordan Crane/Thomas Waldrom 75
9 Ben Youngs 85
10 Toby Flood 80
11 Alessanna Tuilagi 70
12 Anthony Allen 65
13 Matt Smith 70
14 Scott Hamilton 75
15 Geordan Murphy 75

Billy Twelvetrees 70

Ahh, McCaw is a cheat? I'm glad we're back to that.

Never mind McCaw being a cheat though, Victor Matfield is a rapist and Fourie du Preez killed four people.

Wow, it is easy making allogations...backing them up is a little harder, otherwise you just come off as a twat.

 

[Faatau82]

He's good at what he does, and that's being Richie McCaw. Some players are more skillful at 'gaining an advantage' than others, that's not cheating.. that's playing the game to it's limits.

 

[JJR]

Even many New Zealanders would agree that Ritchie gets away with murder more often than not...
