John Afoa has named his best XV of former teammates for The Rugby Paper and it’s incredible.
1 Mako Vunipola
“Scrummaging has improved and the stuff he does around the field ticks all the boxes. Passing, tackling, running and the metres he makes are off the charts.”
2 Keven Mealamu
“Tough hooker who played the game hard.”
3 Adam Jones
“Far more skilful player than people gave him credit for. Great scrummager who could also play
4 Johann Muller
“This guy was a superstar during my time at Ulster. Did the basics really well and was the glue who held our side together when it got tough.”
5 Ali Williams
“Not the biggest lock but when I think of Ali he was a bit of a wild child who backed himself to do anything, even the kicking. Great character with loads of skills.”
