[QUOTE="Fushitsusha, post: 273844"] George Smith has [i]never[/i] outplayed Richie McCaw? Not true... there have been several matches where Smith has come out on top and was definitely the better player in the early stages of their careers, but it's true that McCaw has been consistently no. 1 in that position since around 2004/2005 However, Smith was the best openside in the Super 14 this year... and took out ANOTHER Australian Super 14 player of the year award... Pococok was also completely schooled by Smith when the Force beat the Brumbies this year... And none of the other opensides in Australia will take over from Smith while he's still around... It'll be interesting to see what happens when Smith takes on Brussow this weekend... [/QUOTE]
