You're being sarcastic right? This has to be a joke LOL..

I think we'll have to agree to disagree there...
7 tries in the Super 14 for a prop says differently.
Yeah, but scoring 7 tries in the Super 14 does not make you the best loosehead prop in the world.

Sure, but by that logic, Keese Meeuws was far greater than Carl Hayman, as Hayman scored 1 international try to Meeuws's 10. I was never trying to say it was the most important thing for a prop. Finishing tries means very little as a prop if you can't support your end of the scrum. Being a handy try scorer is just a nice advantage for a prop to have, I didn't offer it as reason why he was a great prop. I think he is good for other things, I also thought it was a nice statistic to add, as I haven't heard many people mention Ben Alexander's try scoring feats on this forum, and they are very impressive for a prop.But scoring tries wins games, so the more tries you score the higher rated you are. Which prop has scored more tries in the Super 14, ever?

look at bands try for south africa tell me that isnt a good try
also it doesnt matter if its boring its a skill to pick and drive well and score from it
it takes alot of power and good positioning to score from apick and drive
Props tries are boring they dont beat as many defenders as you see Cullen doing up here on nickdnz's photo/video thing.
