The world’s top 10 best players have been named - and fans hate it
Top 10s/ListsTuesday, 05 January 2021 at 10:06
The team at Rugby Onslaught had the unenviable task of ranking the 50 best rugby players in the world, and they made a few controversial selections.
Three England stars make the top 10, which unexpectedly also includes Wales wide-man George North.
One fan wrote: "Think you are still hungover from the Boxing Day Beer."
However, that's the territory when ranking players in lists with all supporters having very different opinions from one and other.
We actually think it's a very decent selection on the whole.
10. Will Jordan (New Zealand)
9. Ardie Savea (New Zealand)
8. George North (Wales)
7. Romain Ntamack (France)
6. Semi Radradra (Fiji)
5. Owen Farrell (England)
4. Maro Itoje (England)
3. Jonny May (England)
2. Antoine Dupont (France)
1. Cheslin Kolbe (South Africa)

- Jordie Barrett over Damian de Allende is far from being correct. The hype around Dupont is also overreaching, he's probably 4th in the world and has been since the 2023 WC. He also avoids certain matchups which is strange. The rest of the list is pretty good apart from minor subjective biases.JasonMarlow16-09-2026
