[QUOTE="wayner, post: 607476, member: 39097"] You are right Jack, there is no point in dropping a player just because of age. But I would argue that a player can hit the age wall very quickly - he can be brilliant one year and past it the next. I would argue that Brian O'Driscoll is a case in point for that right now. And to give an example of a hooker - you can argue that was the case with John Smit at the 2011 RWC. By the way, Mealamu is only one year younger than Smit. [/QUOTE]
