All-Time Favourite NZ Rugby XV

[ARHS]

For me: Christian Cullen John Kirwan Jeff Wilson Anton Lienert-Brown Mark Taylor Beauden Barrett Dave Loveridge
Wayne Shelford Duane Monkley Ian Kirkpatrick Brodie Retallick Ian Jones Steve McDowell Sean Fitzpatrick Craig Dowd. Would have Dmac and Richie McCaw on the bench for sure. Maybe add Kees Meeuws Keith Robinson Liam Messam Hika Reid Brad Weber Bruce Smith

@ACT-Crusader surprised you didn't play Carter at 10 and 12

@ACT-Crusader Suitcase can't even make this team at 6

that's All Black Captain Suitcase to you sir

[Nepia]

I think I'd even select the Invisible Man over Todd as a 6 ... I'd just select the version who played against Queensland in 2002 (or 2001) or the late career one when McCaw brought him back into the ABs for moral support.

Nah. McCaw needs his tackle practice so Mertz at 10 it is

And as for the AB captain that led us to historic and glorious Bledisloe victory in 2003, a key man off the bench for this side.
