[QUOTE="nickdnz, post: 543399, member: 38640"] I'd happily give it to Taumalolo. He was a beast for the Chiefs. Yes he scored a lot of tries (probably the best player in the world from 2m out), but what impressed me more was that he scrummaged well (Chiefs had a very good scrum with him and Ben Tamifuna on - most wouldn't have expected Taumalolo to usurp both Toby Smith and Ben Afiaki). What I thought was actually most impressive was his work around the field - he tackled like a mad man and was easily the best player in the Chiefs semi-final win against the Crusaders. He's conceded three penalties in his last five tests (2 against Italy and 1 against Scotland- not the worst record for a front rower. Pretty happy with the team to be fair - don't know if Pienaar's international form has been anywhere near Kahn Fotoali'i's, but the Ulster men love him. [/QUOTE]
