But john kirwans try again italy in 1987 is still the best

All Black supporter here - agree with Horan as no.1, reluctantly... also need to mention his nearly flawless defence! Nonu in the latter part of his career, when he added a rapier to the broadsword, was pretty much as good.

Interesting that there is a lot of debate about the list (there is definite recency cut-off here eg Barry John, Phil Bennett?) but no debate about no 1. Dan Carter. Well Barrett is a faster more incisive runner, Farrell a better, if dodgier, tackler, Sexton a better distributor, Porta a better drop-kicker, maybe Ella more visionary, and Wilkinson and Jenkins have equal ice in the veins when the pressure is on... but Carter while maybe not definitively the best in any single category you are looking for in a 1st Five, he was there or thereabouts. Hence, no debate.

Personally I think Neil Back and definitely Richard Hill belong on this list but it’s not my list .

Iget your love for NH players , but not putting Larkham where he belongs is a crime and questions your credibility

A great list however was surprised that Thierry Dusautoir wasn't there (NZ Fan)

Nothing good or commendable about being a THUG and a BULLY. Which he was, because he was bigger than everybody else. Looking inside his mind to find what makes him tick, wouldn’t be a very pleasant experience…

Give yourself an uppercut, dawg, how could you leave Nonu, Lomu, and Cullen out. What planet are you on dawg, bro you have no idea and I've been watching union for 50yrears 😅

Hey William Duane is there!

Van der Flier instead of SOB is a joke.

Mentioning Farrell but not his impressive 2019 World Cup? And it would be beneficial if the clips shown would match the facts you mention. If you talk about how a player creates space for others, don’t show him breaking lines and scoring tries.

Bakkies was full rage. hahaha.

Chuck Norris sleeps in Bakkies Botha pjs.

You clearly dont know much about rugby

Great vid, they’re so insanely good, always on another level, sublime… it’s the incredible support, there’s always someone there on the shoulder

I’d rate Juan Smith the greatest iv seen, Andre Venter , Rassie Erasmus and many others are better than your list….

leaving the Welsh maestro to the last.

Follow Jesus Christ our savior and the one true god

Where is Phil Bennett Barry John and Ollie Campbell?

Top spot belongs to Brain Habana. Jono Lumo could never score a trie against South Africa. Habana outscored him by nearly 3 times.

There is only two wingers ever who can run through entire teams from goal line to goal line. There is only two wingers who don’t need gaps to run through. John Kirwan and Jonah Lomu.

Top 5 best wingers ever are: Lomu,Habana,Campese,Duckham,Kirwan. The top two in my opinion is : Lomu,Habana.

You missed the best no10 ever. Naas Botha.

Never Mecow Richi3 was only a show

Richie was a cheat the best cheat ever

Your history is not very deep?????

Phil Bennet and Barry John don't make the cut, mate you are playing with yourself!

New rugby fan, my son played football and won state championships in high school but picked up rugby at and I must say I love it even though I’m slowly understanding the game.

I am a flank and no one gets past me.

Matt Giteau at 12 & Brian Odriscoll at 13 Ma nonu at 12 & Manu Tuilagi at 13

France 2023 when New Zealand won the turnover when we were so close to the line

to be honest, I do get put off by some of the ott machismo of the south africans- blowin the kiss attitude was probably a bit reflective of that. dirty at times

1999 ntamack ?!

Thought Toutai Kefu might have got a mention at least.

Barbarian rugby is running rugby, so why don't England adopt this style with Marcus Smith at 10.

When you think you know rugby!🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️

You can't coach this. Natural talent and knowing where the next player is.

Lets see these modern players juggling a playing career with a full time job and then judge them when they cant train around the clock to beef up and sprint like gazelles around the field. Physics is is a great thing but it cant compete with talent. A professional Mike Gibson would be terrifying on the pitch - he had 69 caps for Ireland , in todays game that would be 200 !!

Barry John Dan Carter

I understand that you can't include players you haven't seen, but Mervyn Davies is head and shoulders, the best British No8 ever, so automatically goes into the Top 5.

Farrel ahead of Pollard???

Even given your decision to favour professional players, leaving out Slattery and Gibson is ridiculous. They'd both probably make an all time Lions team, let alone an Irish one. Also, if he stays injury free, it can't be long before Doris overtakes Heaslip as the greatest No8.

For greatest goal kickers i would Niel Jenkins in my top 5 ever.

Carlos Spencer (shout out)

1 Dan Carter 2 Barry John 3 johnny wilkinson 4. Johnny Sexton 5.Jonathan Davies 6. Phil Bennet 7. Handre Pollard 8. Micheal Lynagh 9. Stephen Larkham 10. Richie Mo'unga 11. Mark Ella

Tommy Bowe was fabulous.

I think receiving a nomination for world player of the year and actually winning it are very different. Though BOD was ripped off.

Conor Murray has also scored the most tries against NZ for IRL and the Lions(4).

Ah nostalgia bollocks, the 15 that played most recently at the World Cup would decimate this team, the fact you pink Kearney over Keenan is ridiculous

And every year should probably be international try if the year too
