[QUOTE="Larksea, post: 422579, member: 43875"] hard to Say, NZ has a stupid amount of tallent under 23 years old. Results of u20 WC's for the last few years prove that. We have some youngsters now that could go on to become All Black Greats. Owen Franks, Sam Whitelock, Isreal Dagg. Kieran Read has fast become an all black cornerstone and will continue to be for 6-8 more years. Ryan Crotty & Matt Todd are great prospects from Canterbury but as far as 7 goes there are many serious prospects around - like Sam Cane, Sean Polwart. I expect McCaw to move to blindeside sooner rather than later. Hika is a prospect at hooker though I think Dane Coles will also come up the ranks in NZ over the next few years. From the Waikato two youngsters in particular have real potential to be serious test players. Toby Smith and Tawera Kerr-Barlow 1, Toby Smith 2, Hika Elliot 3, Owen Franks 4, Anthony Boric 5, Sam Whitelock 6, Richie McCaw 7, Matt Todd 8, Kieran Read 9, Barlow 10, Dan Carter 11, Zac Guildford/Ben Smith 12, Ryan Crotty 13, Richard Kahui 14, Julian Savea 15, Israel Dagg [/QUOTE]
