Your team's greatest XV - from the Heineken Cup era / Super Rugby era

[TRF_Cymro]

was Paul Wallace good when he played for Leinster?

better than Stan Wright?

at loosehead don't you think Ollie le Roux offered more mobility than Reggie Corrigan although Corrigan was at Leinster for a lot longer?

thoughts

Ollie provided no mobility :lol:

 

[psychic duck]

Ollie provided no mobility :lol:

for his size, Ollie le Roux was mobile, particularly in his Springbok days

Corrigan was one of the fattest, slowest players I've ever seen

 

[TRF_stormer2010]

Ollie provided no mobility :lol:

You'd be surprised. Faster than most props.

 

[TRF_Cymro]

Corrigan was one of the fattest, slowest players I've ever seen

Dunno what games you been watching but Corrigan was certainly not one of the fatest.

 

[munstermuffin]

That prop for Exeter. Now there is an old school prop he is like 37 and about 20stone and a legend at the club

 

[Teh Mite]

You mean Chris Budgen.

Interesting fact - He's still serving with the forces and his last tour was in Helmand Province. Officially the toughest ******* in world rugby.

 

[munstermuffin]

Agreed their Bullitt. Couldn't think of his name but a fine player even if they just get 20 mins out of him mostly although I remember game away to Tigers this season he was on after 6 mins or so

Aye started the other day against Bath.

 

[Teh Mite]

He's routinely starting and lasting 70 minutes to the whole game.

Legend in his own lunchtime at Saints, Chiefs and for the Army teams.

 

[munstermuffin]

Does he or can he play in that army vs navy game that is usually on

 

[TRF_Cymro]

Does he or can he play in that army vs navy game that is usually on

Think so because he's still part of the army. Someone will correct me however :lol:

[TRF_Ezequiel]

Ruben Kruger is the 1995 Springbok that passed away last year right?

You be correct sir.

 

[psychic duck]

10 : Naas Botha
12 : Japie Mulder
13 : Hennie le Roux

Japie Mulder, Hennie le Roux and Naas Botha never played for the Bulls in the professional era, and are therefore disqualified

 

[TRF_Ezequiel]

Maybe one of the moderators can change the topic ***le then? In the SH we never had a Heineken Cup so this way all teams from SH provinces are invalid

 

[TRF_Cymro]

Changed to accommodate.

 

[Dizzy]

Not sure whether I should base it on how they played when they were apart of the team or how they became afterwards but here goes. I'll go with top form.
