      Though I'd agree that Pollard would be higher in my list (2), I don't think you have to win a RWC to be the best at your post. Or are you saying that Vermeulen or Wiese is better than Savea ? That De Klerk is better than Dupont ?
      Mo'unga is definitely the best 10 now, but he has no WC trophy on his shelf.

    • @matpaps
      @matpaps 6 місяців тому +3

      ​@@rugbybuzz Taking 2023 as a reference
      1. Richie Mo'unga (most line breaks of 2023, and amazing performance in the World Cup)
      2. Ntamack (one less line break than Mo'unga...with half the year injured)
      3. Pollard (because ice in his veins)
      4. Russell (Though quite the attacker, he's lacking the end-game management and consistency of the other 3)
      5. Manie Libbok 'cause his attacking skills are superb
      6. Ramos (sorry, but if you want a 10 that can set chaos in opposing lines, he's your guy)
      7. McKenzie
      8. Marcus Smith
      9. Jalibert
      10. Ford
      To be frank, the top 3 could be swapped any time, it's a very close match. I've put Pollard back because although he's made SA win 3 times, it was not the main reason of those victories. Just being ice cold and good in front of the post does not make you a excellent 10. Also, SA did not win because Pollard : they won because Etzebeth, Marx, Ox, Mbonambi, Arendse, Kolbe...Rassie (ffs that guy is a wizard). They did not "crush" everyone, they outplayed and outsmarted everyone, and for this, they are the well deserved RWC champions IMO.
      Owen Farell was just not that last year, sincerely hope that he'll come back to his top this year.

    Comparing Pollard to this list is an insult if he is not at Nr 1. Muanga Crumbled under pressure in the final, Ferrall is a yellow card away from being a liability, Finn das nullified during the RWC and Scotland went down because their game was planned around Finns game only. Pollard is more than a kicker, because he structures defence while at the same time looking to exploit opportunities to break opposition defence

    Its not easy to pick the order but agree hands-down Richie Mo'unga and Finn Russel are exceptional fly-halves. As a South African , myself and many others generally don't have a bias towards individual player rankings. Our team plays as a unit and they are measured against how well the fit into their positions. Anyways, thanks for the vid!

To me Pollard is just Dan Biggar that has the chance to play with the best pack in the world instead of wales.

      Why would an Irish or French ref be more liienient on Farrell than a Kiwi or an Australian ref ?
      Is a Bok player less likely to get carded by a NH ref than a SH ref as well ?
