[QUOTE="TheSaffycen, post: 632597, member: 71135"] All my stats are from [url]http://www.rbs6nations.com/en/france/france_team_statistics.php[/url] It only shows the largest for each category so I don't know how many defenders Dulin beat because Basteraud got more. Basteraud beat more defenders with 16 Brice Dulin made 373 meters from 59 carries so an average of 6.3m per carry Also conceded 10 turnovers Brown made 543 meters from 64 carries average 8.5m he beat 25 defenders and scored 4 tries, 10 clean breaks Looking at those stats I can't see how anyone can make a case for Dulin being the best fullback in the world. [B]WelshGlory[/B] I can't really agree that Taylor, Buttin and Piutau who have not been truly exposed to international rugby can be ranked higher than Brown, Halfpenny and Kearney. I would also put Kearney in the elite fullback category, two lions tours and ERC Player of the Year for 2012. [B]EDIT[/B]Henry got there before me [/QUOTE]
