Yes as that's even worse (having zero club rugby to go along with his zero international rugby)
Paul O'Connell 2013 only had a handful of Munster games in a similar time period and was a nailed on starter come test time.
Yeah, but that's POC FFS.
And this is Kruis Vs Adam ******* beard
Mentioning Kruis in the same sentence as POC just made me vomit a little bit. Beard is much closer to Kruis' level than Kruis was to POC in my humble opinion.
Yeah Kruis like POC has only won everything going and been a pivotal player in those successes. Beard a lot less so.
Again this is a straw man. I'm not even debating who's the best player or what have you. For me it's very very simple. Has Kruis been playing international rugby recently? No. Has Beard? Yes he helped us win a 6N. Has Kruis been playing top flight club rugby? No. Has Beard? Debatable but I'd argue as **** as the Welsh regions are the strength of the pro 14 is better than the Japanese league.
I said I wouldn't pick him, but I wouldn't pick Beard either and I'd certainly back him over Beard to be useful come the tests.
Cool. As I say, each to their own. We all have our opinions.
That's why I also included rugby people. I take it you think all pundits are **** and know nothing or do you like the ones that agree with you?Rugby Pundits
Really? That surprises me but it shouldn't in this Brexit age. People who are considered experts aren't anymore and their opinions are given the same weight as an uninformed nobody on the internet who's never played the game. Wow.
Well I'm sure the outrage in the media will reach similar levels and we'll start seeing them reeling off all the candidates that are way better, including Kruis.
