[QUOTE="Canuck, post: 663667, member: 71510"] Great points. Bismarck right now in form is the best hooker I've ever seen, I think I just have a sentimental attachment to Smit for all the years he put in with the Boks and captaining the 2007 team. I honestly wasn't too sure about tighthead, I've heard so much about Hempies du Toit as well At 7 yeah there's been just so many great Bok blindsides over the years. Juan Smith has been fantastic, Andre Venter, Ruben Kruger (although I think he played openside for the Bulls), Piet Greyling and Theuns Stofberg were all so great 12 - yeah my dad and uncles talk about Peter Whipp a lot too, and I've heard and read a lot abut Mannetjies Roux as well Wing - Also definitely a good mention for Carel du Plessis, I've actually managed to watch a couple full games of his from the 80s and he was very impressive Thanks for those other reads, always interesting to get the point of view of people watching and following rugby far longer than myself [/QUOTE]
