Fuck Shark you are beyond rugby clueless
Frans Malherbe was in the shape of his life this last WC and he was the unsung hero of the Bok side
Easily the best tighthead in the game
Marx is not on that list as he has been injured for ages

The fact that they make some lists tells us all we need to know about your ignorant takes on these two

Marx isn't just the best hooker in the world, he's probably one of the best players overall.
DDA only makes lists written by people that don't actually watch him play(please use this statement to rank me on the list below).
But let's do another list and start on this thread...
Shark - clueless
Mozart - ignorant
Plum -

No Buttplug you are not ignorant don’t kid yourself you are fucking stupid
The fact that DA makes a list of the top 20 proves just how fucking stupid you are
Poor players don’t make top 20 lists or the side of the year in 2023 but hey ho - once stupid always fucking stupid

Bullshit he is the most effective 12 in taking it up, the primary role of a modern day test 12 and had the most dominant tackles
The lad is a class act playing to a pattern that wins competitions

It’s the standard, it sets up the next phase, no different to Eben taking it up
The stats for current test 12’s does not see them beating loads of defenders or making clean breaks - it’s simply not the reality of test rugby
You lot just don’t get the significance of his role all you see is tractoring
But best of all is that all the other 12’s are doing the same, he is just doing it better than them because he is stronger
The only real standout 12 this past year has been Aki but let’s face it he has done fuck all previous to this.
You lot are devoid of reality - you still want to see 12’s attacking space, ripping defences apart - it’s not 2010

Very few offloads from Aki he bashes his way over the advantage line. It’s been some time since Kerevi did anything of significance
Aki has had a purple patch, he was insignificant before that
DA has been the most consistent over the years it’s why he always finds himself starting
No he does not die with the ball he sets up the next phase
