<div class='quotemain'> <div class='quotemain'> there are two big differences between the two. That is that one plays for the boks the other for the all blocks. the other difference is that one of them has won a world cup. [/b]
Jonah Lomu never won a RWC, but he will always be remembered as the greatest. Not David Campese.
Habana was born 12th June, 1983.
Rokocoko was born 6th June, 1983.
Rokocoko has 43 tries from 48 matches.
Not so sure about Habana's stats.

Habana`s got 30 tries from 35 tests. In 2004, it was 3 in 3 tests on the EOYT. In 2005, it was 12 from 12 tests. During the dark days of 2006, when the Boks were missing more than half of our pack and got slaughtered 49-0 and such, he scored only 2 from 10. And this year, it was 13 from 10 tests. So that`s the stats, as well as the breakdown.

Thanks for that, I couldn't really find much info on him.
Career Notes - Joe Rokocoko
• Scored three tries against England at Eden Park in 2004 to record his third Test hat-trick, following similar efforts in 2003 against Australia and France.
• Scored 17 tries in 12 Tests in 2003, a world record for a calendar year.
• In the same year, became the first player to score 10 tries in his first five Tests (though he went scoreless on debut), and the first All Black to score two or more tries in four consecutive Tests.
Sure Habana is impressive, but I'd like to see him beat those stats.
Hat-tricks against 3 major nations. (He has scored 4 hat-tricks, but one was against a minnow, Romania)
