[QUOTE="Sam Owen, post: 332041, member: 43087"] The thing with Habana is that when the momentum is with his team things go his way but when his team is struggling it can make him seem ordinary. Im not trying to make comparisons but for the sake of my point take Lomu for example..Dagg, Tim Horan and Jeff Wilson when these names Ive mentioned are playing for a struggling team they can still shine. They come up with big plays or do the little things consistently well that forces you to notice them and makes commentators remind you about them. Bryan is a great winger with great speed and a reliable finisher when in space but he is only hot when his team is. When Steyn cant get in to position and territory to put up a bomb for him that takes away from Habana, when he cant get invisible enough to pop up and intercept a pass, when the backline is not putting him in and when the defence is watching him closely Habana cant shine. Dont get it twisted I like Habana hes scored some great tries and I have him in my current tri-nations team but hes not a big line breaker just a guy that can really pounce on an oppertunity.
