I thought i'd start this up. There have been 3 RWC's this decade and we have seen some real stars come and go from the international and club arena.
Looking back there have been some players who just have that x-factor written all over them.. question is, who do you think have been the REAL standout players over the past decade?
Here's some nominations off of the top of my head. I've probably missed out some players, so forgive me.. i was out of rugby from 2002 to 2006! fill in the blanks!
