Itoje isn’t anywhere near Top10 Flament, Beirne, Ryan, Meafou, Skelton, Snyman off the top of my head are all better than him and that’s just taking in locks.
No doubt about Dupont.IMO Lukhno Am was probably the best 13 in the world before his injury. Don't rate Itoje so highly that he should be in the top 10. There are at least 3 locks who are better than him.
@@richardmatatahi4563 Your right, they will give some credit to the people like Ardie who have been at the top for a long time. But they don't care enough to check who is rising to the top in recent times. Now I can't say that this guy didn't consider putting Will on the list. It just doesn't make sense how a non biest list doesn't have him on it.

@@davidhughes8795 The Countries in the North more the 4 home Nations I won't include France or Italy actually just Ireland. I have had run ins with "THEM" before. where the one's I was commenting with didn't think our Super Rugby Pasifika Competition, Or our Rugby Championship was where the best players come from. Despite 8 RWC titles having been won, by 3 SH Countries, I will acknowledge the fan base in the North is huge but we are the ones winning the RWC where the Majority of Rugby World Champions come from. This was the basis of my side of the debate. they wouldn't have a bar of it, could only remind me we lost a Test Series to Ireland to justify themselves. That is why it is important to us to meet up with Ireland at the RWC QF for our Redemption. Hope you understand we need to beat Ireland and get our mana back. if we accomplish that, we're going for the Cup. We actually need South Africa to finish in the same position as us, so we get Ireland. That's the plan only in my head and silence the Irish Supporters, That's just how we roll.
Having Itoje and Siya on this list is criminal, if we're talking about 2023 alone. Richie Mo'unga makes my list and Kurt-Lee Arendse has had an excellent. "For the stoepe" 😂
It's going to be the more exalting rugby world cup ever !!! Very nice Top, We can mentioned Damian Penaud, James Lowe, Thomas Ramos, Will Skelton, Thibaut Flament too !
I think you should mention more french players like Jelonch who is always making an amazing game and has been impressive by sacrificing himself during the last 6 nations
Will Jordan needs to be on this list he is unbelievable and Dalton Papalii, Caelon Dorris arguably after Dupont the most inform player in the world last season itoje is an amazing talent but on form does not deserve to be in top 10 Etzebeth is probably the same. you could throw Flament into the equation for this list. Kurt Lee-Arendse has been better than Kolbe for the guts of this year
Will Jordan is no different from putting Damien Penaud there (within his last 20 games he conceded 22tries) and I don't think he should be in the top 10.. Same for Radradra doesn't deserves to be there
I think you did very well in your choices given it takes hours to analyze every player in the world, which has been my job for 30 years. But i personally think Will Jordan of New Zealand is the best player on the planet bar none.
Personally most of the list is fine but for me some of the decisions weren’t that good. My list would look like this right now: 10. Rieko Ioane 🇳🇿 9. Gregory Allrditt 🇫🇷 8. Tadhg Furlong 🇮🇪 7. Cheslin Kolbe 🇿🇦 6. Malcolm Marx 🇿🇦 5. Will Jordan 🇳🇿 4. Eben Etzebeth 🇿🇦 3. Josh Van Der Flier 🇮🇪 2. Ardie Savea 🇳🇿 1. Antoine DuPont 🇫🇷 Thoughts? P.S this is coming from a South African supporter so don’t be surprised that 0 🏴players were named in the top 10 lol 😂
If your wondering why Am and Kolisi aren’t in my list it is because they haven’t exactly performed to their standards in the last couple of months- plus they have both been out for a while during the season. I still put Will Jordan tho even tho he has been injured because we all saw what he is capable of doing even if he’s been out for months against SA
No Damian Mckenzie at 10??? Rieko Ioane wing or centre and Ardie Savea No.2??? Will Jordan No.5 lock??? sure you don't have them in numbered positions.
Also don't agree with the list. Shouldn't have Itoje, Etzebeth, or Kolisi in there for starts, Itoje has been so inconsistent and is out of form (same for Tadgh Furlong as well recently but they're both still immense). Etzebeth and Kolisi have been injured for most of the season and Kolisi is still injured. Could have had Richie Mo'unga or Owen Farrel in there instead. Could've also included either Hugo Keenan or Ramos for a full back as they're both easily the best in the world in their position. Would've picked Will Jordan or Arandse ahead of Kolbe as well. But at this point I'm nit picking
almost impossible to make a top 10 in a sport where the skill sets are so different from positions. you can certainly make a dream team of a full rooster though and I would retain 6 or 7 of your top 10, starter and bench combined.
Itoje's level has been going down since the last WC is no longer a top3 lock. Kolbe is still great but he missed a lot of games during his time at Toulon. Will Jordan & Beauden Barett should be in this top10 instead, not necessarly at the same rankings.
The NH don't regard a World Player of the year 2016-17 and nominee 2018 who I considered was way the better player than overrated Johnny Sexton as player of the year in 2018 & Owen Farrell because Beauden Barrett can play 10, 12 & 15. Many consider Beauden has an edge over both NH players. And Cheslin Kolbe, was nominated in 2019 & won Player of the year 2021. My opinion and many in the SH these two players would smoke Sexton & Farrell.
Thank you for your list, it is very interesting, but I think you have a lot of South African players and not enough Irish and French players. For your information, I am French! :)
Ridiculous list. 4 South Africans (including Am, who he?), only 1 All Black, only 2 Irish (no Sexton??), only 2 from France….and on and on. Really, this is not worth commenting on.
where is Faf De Clark....Handre Pollard.... anywy it's not easy to make a list of top 10 best rugby players.... all these guys are lethal...well trained....
This would be the perfect list for 2022 Not sure that you watched 2023 season so far ! Itoje Kolbe Kolisi should not be in the 2023 list However : Penaud Ringrose Ramos Jordan Meafou …

Itoje isn’t anywhere near Top10 Flament, Beirne, Ryan, Meafou, Skelton, Snyman off the top of my head are all better than him and that’s just taking in locks.
Same with Kolbe. Too inconsistent, I would argue Penaud, Telea, Arendse, and others are above
Kolisi has been injured for half the season just like Jelonch so don’t know how he’s there.
Mind you all of this is constructive criticism and in part my opinion.
Yeah i feel the same way hes good but theres an easy 6 or so players who are clearly better
@@therugbyfanatic3379so true.. Kolbe is very on and off in club rugby lately
As a South African, I want to hate Du Pont, but not only is he unbelievably good, he's also just a really nice guy...
I'm French and I agree with you, he's the king in his place but it's true he's really a good guy, modest and who plays for the team
As an Englishman, why is Itoje in? He is no where near top 10 at the moment. De Jager, Doris, Penaud and so many others are better than him
Agreed
Blk priveledge
No doubt about Dupont.IMO Lukhno Am was probably the best 13 in the world before his injury. Don't rate Itoje so highly that he should be in the top 10. There are at least 3 locks who are better than him.

They think Rugby revolves around the NH and All the good players are up in the North.

Only 2 frenchs? Where are Penaud, Flament, Marchand?
Not to mention Ntamack!
only two french? the arrogance of frog. thats why you are going to lose
@@luisnunes3863jalibert is better ...
I would also put Danty on this list

I think you should mention more french players like Jelonch who is always making an amazing game and has been impressive by sacrificing himself during the last 6 nations
Kurt lee Arendse should be close to top 10 in the world at the moment.
Agree especially if you put Cheslin in that list

Ashole cheslin kolbe is better dan kurt -lee ashole😅
Fynn Russell an Richie M'Ounga deserves a place in the top ten
Antoine Dupont the Magician is #1, no debate
Kolbe was middle all the year, since Toulon join it's not even a top 5 in the Top 14, i don't see him as a top 10 players atm, at all
The Pronunciation of Tadgh was wild
Worth hanging around for.
Todgey Furlong
He's some man for one man is our auld Tad-G 😂
Siya Kolisi has hardly played at all during the 2023 season.
It’s absolutely criminal Will Jordan doesn’t make the cut.
Antoine Du Pont is an amazing rugby player !!!
I think josua tuisova can bump all those 10 players. Coz his unstoppable 👋😁
Ardie,Eben and Malcolm Marx the best forwards ever
When did you start watching rugby? Richie McCaw? To mention one?
Semi Radradra deserve to be here too.
I'd choose Radradra over AM any day!
Just if you're curious, Tadhg is pronounced like the word "thai" with a g sound on the end of it.
I would like to see a Dream team video soon from Koral rugby 🏉
That would cause som immense controversy lol 😂
🙂🙂🙂
Itoje and Kolisi shouldn't be anywhere near the top 10
Penaud should be in the top 10 he's currently the best winger in the world
I think you did very well in your choices given it takes hours to analyze every player in the world, which has been my job for 30 years. But i personally think Will Jordan of New Zealand is the best player on the planet bar none.
Tuisova and Radradra top 5 😁
I would like to see a "team" of xv players to follow during the world cup. Because it's impossible to compare dupont and furlong...
Malcolm Marx from South Africa!
Would love to see Bundee Aki on there!
Feels like content made by AI… like someone asked Chat GPT to put together a clip of top 10 rugby
🤔
Dupont !!!!! What else!!!
My man is a bit stuck in 2019
Absolutely, this is so out of date. I am am a huge Tadgh Furlong fan but he has barely even played this year, and Doris left out?
Personally most of the list is fine but for me some of the decisions weren’t that good.
My list would look like this right now:
10. Rieko Ioane 🇳🇿
9. Gregory Allrditt 🇫🇷
8. Tadhg Furlong 🇮🇪
7. Cheslin Kolbe 🇿🇦
6. Malcolm Marx 🇿🇦

7.Jordan
6.Ntamack
5.Aldritt
4.Etzebeth
3. Savea

i think you should mention more all blacks players like bauden barret and wil jordan
Nice top 10.
Aldritt n'a jamais été capitaine en équipe de France.
Capitaikne de la Rochelle et capitaine officieux des avants français (avec Ch. Ollivon).
Ireland France and South Africa dominated this list, but only one team remains in the world cup, and it’s not France or Ireland. Bokke for the win!!!
On Maro itoje I think he doesn't deserve to be in this year's list
almost impossible to make a top 10 in a sport where the skill sets are so different from positions. you can certainly make a dream team of a full rooster though and I would retain 6 or 7 of your top 10, starter and bench combined.
True
No Beauden Barret? Somewhat surprised
Sad to not see Romain Ntamack... Is a great player
I don't think Itoje would make the top 10 locks in the world at the moment, never mind the overall top 10
2023 ??? Richie Mo'Unga and Will Jordan surely makes this list
‘Taghge furlong’ 😂
Lmao Will Jordan will set this RWC on 🔥🔥 The world ain't ready
super
"Ange capuozzo left the chat"
The next video should be the best scrum halfs in the 2023 rugby wc
Pretty accurate
N1 Dupond is the minimum this guy is a satellite
Itoje's level has been going down since the last WC is no longer a top3 lock. Kolbe is still great but he missed a lot of games during his time at Toulon. Will Jordan & Beauden Barett should be in this top10 instead, not necessarly at the same rankings.
How about the three of them kolbe still a great player
TAJEE Furlong 😂
For those wondering it's pronounced Tie-g (spelt Tadgh)
It will be fun to review this list after the tournament is over.
Some of the list I agree with, it's just we need Kolbe to be higher and for Beauden Barret to be on here aswell 🙂
The NH don't regard a World Player of the year 2016-17 and nominee 2018 who I considered was way the better player than overrated Johnny Sexton as player of the year in 2018 & Owen Farrell because Beauden Barrett can play 10, 12 & 15.

Thank you for your list, it is very interesting, but I think you have a lot of South African players and not enough Irish and French players. For your information, I am French! :)
Aldritt doesn't captain France. Dupont and Charles Ollivion typically captain France. Almost might want to work on the pronunciation of Tadgh Furlong.
how the hell is Beauden Barrett not on here
Ridiculous list. 4 South Africans (including Am, who he?), only 1 All Black, only 2 Irish (no Sexton??), only 2 from France….and on and on. Really, this is not worth commenting on.
Yet you still commented, if you don't know Am then you don't know anything about international rugby

Stephen du tout from the springboks must be in top 10
Kolbe and Marcus Smith and Poland are the best
"Tadgee Furlong" ... 🤣🤣😅 they don't even try.

You forget no.11 for Scotland
whoever selected this group does not know much of rugby.
Cheslin Kolbe should be promoted by Fiji not south Africa. I would like to see that baal contest with William Furlock and me on tick tock .
More vids Abt Dupont....
You not look at the Fijian side. Just a thought.😊
Fiji or Samoa?? Shannon Frizell should be on Top five.
And Thomas Ramos? 🇫🇷
Ramos is only the 2nd best full back after Hugo Keenan, if you want proof, go back and watch the 6 nations again. Keenan was MOTM against France.
Aldritt is not the captain of France, it’s Dupont
Itoje? What? He can't even put a silver medal around his neck.
Put against Etsebeth, he's a 12 year old girl.
Cheslin kolbe for shure number 1
4 south africans
2 french
2 irish
1 english
1 new zealander
