    Glad Mapimpi is there. The guy doesnt age

    Chessie ❤ one of the biggest hearts out there. 💪 Bokke blessed to have him. Great timing for the video as well seeing as his cousin is running a 200m Olympic semi in about an hour's time.
  • I usually watch your videos from start to finish but am I the only one here who fast forwards to your own country's players in top 10 videos?
  • @Natedawg38
    Yessss JLo get there in son! Delighted you put him higher. Okay, his game in Pretoria was bizarre to say the least but man he's an exciting winger any way you slice it.
  • @SummerSteps
    Mapimpi underrated a bit. Love your vids Tim, always
  • @vahorgan
    Louis Bielle-Biarrey will top this list in a couple years time! Something special about this kid.

    Only 1600 more subs guys hit that button
  • Must admit Lowe was very good against Boks in SA. In these mid-year games, I believe he was a menace when it counted and for me he was the best Wing of all (11 and 14) in the World. This is saying a lot from a Boks supporter - who hoped Kolbe or Arendse would take those honors this season...

    Man seeing Louw at 3 is so crazy. Proper Swiss Army knife with size and pace for days. In the same breath though I can’t put him above Telea or Kolbe 🥲
  • Big ups Eggy- yup Cheslin is by far the most rounded winger. Besides being absolutely deadly, his defence and positional play is impeccable. He also has a seriously understated boot and can easily double up at 9,10 or 15. Incredible asset to any team. But yeah ,did I say deadly..
  • Sports stats pre world cup had a number based on impacts on the game during a rugby match , the highest scoring player was Cheslin Colby with an impact 73 times in a game , he handles tackles runs more often than any other player on the planet , looking for work all the time is such an underrated skill/attitude . I honestly think his physique is the reason he is so good , if you're small , big guys have to bend down to tackle you but people bending dont run or dodge as fast .

    If Cheslin wasnt first, i would have been mind blown.played 11 most of my rugby time. Played against mapimpi at swallows in Mdanstani, absolutely brilliant - so i have experienced. Cheslin is my all time, i was alo short as shit in high school rugby, then someone removed the brick from my head and i grew :P The team was Buffs Rugby Club Thanks tim - cheers

    I've created a spreadsheet with all your power rankings! With 10 points for first in a position down to 1 for 10th. Makes for fascinating analysis. Really shows the SA depth with 167 points so far, before adding in the full backs. That's an average of just on 12 points per position due to SA having multiple players per position. Surprisingly NZ have only scored 87!
  • Bielle-Biarrey is the only player on the list that wasn’t born in the southern hemisphere… not sure what to make of that!
  • @NateMulder
    Mark Tele'a being a right winger made to play left so they could have both him and Jordan on the pitch, and still being a top 2 guy is crazy
  • @BenBen-bi5vn
    Kolbe and Arendse on the wings in seriously beautiful to watch
