No.2 – Tadhg Furlong (rating – 93)
Speed: 70, Passing/Offloading: 80, Tackling: 85, Speciality: 98, Kicking: void, Strength: 96
You shouldn’t underestimate the power of the potato addict. When looking position specific it’s impossible to think of someone who dominates their position the same way Tadgh Furlong does, with his speciality being the scrum, you’re more likely to watch pigs fly then to see this man go back in the scrum. Incredibly strong and willing to do anything around the park, his handling also shouldn’t be underestimated.
No.1 – Beauden Barrett (rating – 95)
Speed: 95, Passing/Offloading: 90, Tackling: 80, Speciality: void, Kicking: 90, Strength: 70
Was his position ever in doubt? He’s still the standout rugby player on the planet with incredible speed, passing and kicking rage, his kicking off the T has been questioned but he’s undoubtedly an amazing open play kicker, with a brain to spot a gap and then the pace and ability to take it, every rugby fan seems in unison thinking that he is the greatest player in the world at this time.
