LIST | England legend Mike Tindall ranks his five greatest players of all-time

"He has to be in there. The most capped player of all-time, a double world champion and just a great guy. A quality player, he changed the games for all 7s."

"He is a double world champion, but he missed out on playing in the 2011 final through injury, but he showed his class in the World Cup final this year where he led New Zealand to victory. He has had sabbaticals, so that's why I'm not putting him any higher."

"The leader of the great England team that won the World Cup in 2003, and not just the best player on the field, but off it as well. He led from the front , he was my type of captain and also the best second rower that's ever played the game."

"He was just way ahead of his time and you still enjoy going back and watching some of the tries he scored. Everyone remembers that great Barbarian try that was started in their own 22. He just has to be in there."

"He changed the game completely. You could put him in any generation and he would still dominate. You could put him in today’s game and he would be even better [than he was] because of the advances in nutrition and the training methods, which would benefit him further. Him and Julian Savea would be a tough wing combination to handle!"
