He's still my Rack Russel Terrier ( of the Springboks . ) Live of scraps . Way too fast , slippery as a snake , with the heart of a lion . Anybody that ever played the game will agree . For a prop forward , there's no better feeling than getting up from a scrum , to see your best mate make a dive for the tryline .
what are all these people saying? any way u read the game genia is easily the best half back in the world. i am probaly abit biased but du preez seemed to just put up up a box kick for habana to chase any time he touched the ball, and he throws big loopy passes to his 5/8. not best half back or player in the world now, maybe 2009 but not now
Joost was without question the best 9 of all time, I never thought I'd see a better 9 ever again. Du Preez has surpassed him! He has no weaknesses in his game. Keep in mind that he played throughout 2009 with a damaged shoulder!
@reubend13 I agree Ben Youngs is good, but Fourie Du Preez is easily the top scrum-half in the world, Youngs has a long way to go to even reach the heels of this man.
Fourie has no equal and never will have while he is in shape, the reason for this is not because he can do everything a scrumhalf must do but because he is one of the best readers of the game at the moment in world rugby, they dont call him general fourie for nothing, he can dictate a whole game as he did against England for instance in 2007 world cup qualifiers 36-0. And against the chiefs in super14 finals.
@ratfac true, but Kelleher is known as an unpredictable and unorthodox scrumhalf, he prefers to run more than passing plus he's strong and fast, that's y he's such an interesting player to watch, he's my idol 4 sure
@ShaNz194 its great to have a strong scrum half dont get me wrong and its great to make a break, but the job of the scrumhalf is to feed the rest of the team and make the decisions...if a scrum half makes a short break and doesnt break through there is nobody there to make a decision and the ball is slow. thats why fourie is better...he is an incredible decision maker and passer and picks IDEAL times to make a break whreas kelleher just goes for them all the time
@44redman1 I hope he does.!! Dont get me wrong I think he's a quality player!! He's no Fourie du Preez yet!! But nothin to say he wont be as good in the future
@88wallabies Bro u are so COOKED genia is like a lil boy compared to fourie, fourie is a genius clever all round player whereas genia is just hopeless and can not even compare
@44redman1 genia at his best is still but a shadow of Fourie du Preez - he didn't do jack this tri nations. he's a good super rugby player, but he's a bit of a fader on international level. just like quade cooper. He still needs to learn what du Preez forgot ages ago.
@TubeStarbuck realy? interesting opinion. but in my mind genia at his best would be pretty equal with du prez. just genia is lacking fitness this trinations wich has held him back. cooper realy hasnt been able to do anything because of suspension and nrl stuff. they will be a pretty good combo next year just like du prez and steyn and cowan and carter
@twinytwo LMAO!! Was a great player in his day, but just a good one in 09. His greatest exploit was exploiting adi Jacobs in the first 2 Lions tests, which was hardly anything of note, but NH had an orgasm over it.
@twinytwo I watched those first two tests several times, frame by frame. They directed all of their play through Jacobs. In the first test, the Lions were beaten in all facets of play, but the non-tackling Jacobs was so porous that it allowed O'Driscoll and Roberts have free reign. On the EOYT, Olivier and Fourie kept O'Driscoll very quiet. I'm taking nothing away from BOD, he's the best 13 since Gerber, and one of my fav players, but facts are facts.
