Top 10 Fullbacks

[Big Ewis]

I don't think that's true at all. He's always talking about French and how amazing they are on their day - he always rates Sella as one of the best players he's ever faced. He is just dissapointed in the current french set up, as are lots of people.

yeah I don't think he's particularly out of line...about that particular comment some time ago, I think he was like you said just disappointed and at least he's not a diplomatic bitcch, he says it as it is.

I bet very few people here even heard of him, but Romanian fullback Catalin Fercu could make the global Top 10 in my opinion. Here's a short article about him:

Fercu never got much recognition outside Romania, mainly due to his fear of flying that made him reject transfer offers from clubs like Castres or Northampton in the past. He missed RWC 2011 for the same reason. Romania's heavy forward-oriented gameplan does not give him much chance to shine either. But people who have watched at least one match of the Romanian national team know that he is more dangerous than the other backs of the Oaks combined, a great player who loves solo runs and counters.

I couldn't find many clips of his runs, but here are a few from 2013 and 2014:
