[QUOTE="Big Ewis, post: 663612, member: 57076"] Benazzi played a whole lot of lock, especially in the more crucial xv de France games (like 1999 RWC NZ) so I don't think he's the best pick at no.8 and with a legend like Chabal who was so prolific on both defense and offense... And for God's sake, stop putting Mas at loosehead and Califano at tighthead !!!! :lol: And it's Jean-Pierre Rives*. Some good picks for France there. Also, I tend to favor more modern players as I always do in sports. Ppl always call me out in "Greatest Ever Top 10's" in NBA circles because I leave out "classic legends" of the game, but I firmly believe all those older guys benefited from a much less competitive setting (NBA), or much less "physical" style for Rugby. I'll pick Rives at flanker because he's just such a historical figure, but how do we know he'd fare all that well with today's backrow monsters ? [/QUOTE]
