[QUOTE="Big Ewis, post: 666939, member: 57076"] ^ nah, that's just not true. Hernandez is still quite good today, but he went from being one of the world's best backs to completely leaving the surface of the Earth, until finding good form again around 2012. Then he went a little discreet. He's good again these days, but he's not one of the world's best center/fullbacks at all. I agree Albacete is good, but I don't know honestly if he deserves to be with the very best, there's a reason he's not held in that high regard. Like, he's not Top 5 right now. I agree Sanchez is crazy underrated and it does pi$s me right the fk off. Ffs, what does he have to do for ppl to start accepting him into their privileged circle of Dan Carters, Jonny Sextons and Bernard Foleys, there are [U]fkng good[/U] flyhalves in other countries, like France or Argentina. Urdapilleta is virtually unknown when he is the metronome of Oyonnax, a damn fine team run by him. Imhoff scores a fantastic try in Cardiff in a resounding Puma win in 2012, ppl start yappin about em a little, then nothing. Even France, one of the Top 5 major nations, gets forgotten more often than not and get way overlooked. Because we're not common wealth, english-speaking, all that. Italy is obscure, but we see them in the 6N so ppl know em a little. But Argentina, they're SH, don't speak English, in between third world and first world, and their players are all in France. NOBODY knows them the way they should. Anyways, didn't say the Pumas were mediocre on paper, just saying they're average compared to other major Tier 1 nations, and still play like THIS. Fkng impressive, remember just a little time ago everybody said Boks by 100 and what not, then learning Imhoff and can't remember who got injured...that it was all over. [/QUOTE]
