  1. Hurricane JD Hurricane

    Dominic Bird

    Because I can't think of a loose head prop right now.

    Bird is going to get more and more respect as time passes. He is a rugby player's rugby player.
     
  2. Starris ER Starris

    Gosh I hadn't considered either!


    Not bad!

    Epic fail not first picking McCaw tbh...

  11. jazman84 JM Eightyfour

    Because he is the easily best Union player of the past 20 years.
     
  12. Arheiner SIA Yates

    Both arguable, and he plays a less key position than Carter which has reasonable depth.

    Not saying he's a bad first pick, but there's multiple viable options for it.

    McCaw's skills go far and beyond his position though imo. The things he achieves in the breakdown, with and without the ball is worth far more than a decent 10.
     
  14. Starris ER Starris

    Your 1st 5/8 controls the game... and generally scores most of the points.


    I'd take Carter over McCaw any day.


    I'll concede to McCaw being the captain though - probably evens things up a little.

  16. Jabba HJ Bots

    Gazza up?
     
  17. The Boy Brumby ZJ Brumby

    Had his 24? If it's me I'll go:

    Jamie Joseph
    Xavier Rush
     
  18. Starris ER Starris

    Xavier was on my list if I didn't get Cane.
     
  19. Starris ER Starris

    Must be getting close to skippo-rune-e time!
