Rugby TOP 45 Players (2011)

[EFoulard]

Annnd Wilkoooo ! (and maybe michalak no ?)

[bigtunessss]

Sherridan in best team?

[90JKV]

not even forward work anymore..all they're good for now is kicking game..but then again Steyn would burn them in kicking lmaoo

[jonoahlfeld]

The Top 3 teams in the world are NZ Australia and South Africa. Northern Hemisphere rugby consists of excellent forward work and drop goals

[Cikgusengal]

mcm bodoh je kau punyer rating.............semua player biasa2 je.yg tiptop x der pon..bangang je...hehhee.

[bluefb99]

how is this 2011 team?

[DrHSC123]

Come on....

Brian O'Driscoll is the best center ever.

James O'Connor sucks

Seán O'Brian is amazing

Quade Cooper sucks.

Tronte Duke has a great kick

Ronan O'Gara has the best off the tee kick in the entire Northern Hemisphere

Cian Healy.

[SadieSmutz]

@DrHSC123 James O'Connor is amazing 

[rushminga]

matt guiteau???Ma'a Nonu????jonny wilkinson????sebastien chabal????maxime medard???richie gray???dan parks???mealamu??? etc....

[David147v2]

pure shite!

habana shouldnt be there

sexton to replace flood

o driscoll swap with AAC

[khaliaization]

no maa nonu u gotah b kiding me. ..

[LeinsterRugbyy]

SHUT UP U RETARDED FUCKS.. this is his choice and HIS OPINION of the top 45 players..

we can easily just call "your" top 45 shit too cause we all have different opinions..

[taetjo1]

Pathetic! How can John Smit be on the list?

[foudu34]

t'est pourri

ya pas trinh-duc

[imrugbymad]

oh and read! he is on the rise but 1st team is a debatable call, obviously no team will ever be settled on but so many crap calls in my opinion and tialata!

[imrugbymad]

wtf no fourie? no habana? mils is 1st and sonny bill? also no john smit in any and toby flood are you on drugs? shane williams not in 1st team and how can rococoko be in here? and no bismarck du plessis either and rocky elsom is shit 3rd team at best

[kileydrake2009]

Bro this is a load of shit who ever made this ain't got a glue about rugby where Kanio, Mealamu,Conrad Smith, Ma Nonu seriously bro NO IDEA & your props lol are you fuckin kidding me.

[MrJeromeo93]

this is a load of horse shit. Ma a Nonu Jerome Kaino Richard Kahui Israil Dagg Piri Weepu Cory Jane Conrad Smith Owen Franks Samuel Whitelock .... all RWC Final players arnt in the top three teams you reackon. Bite your arse.

the most screwed up teams ever. You put Joe Rocks in the second team when he is now the 7th choice winger in NZ.

[robp2k11]

the best front row are all european? wow, im guessing the south africans have something to say about that

[JohnMacNamara1994]

BOD on second team?? and where the fuck is tommy bowe? and paulie only on second team? u clearly know fuck all about rugby....dussatoir for first team and ROG instead of flood...shane williams first team.....castrogiovanni in the best team??

[buches66]

Anybody from Argentina in the best team? Roncero(Prop),Contepomi(Inside­r),Leguizamon(wing-forward).An­d Juan Martin Hernandez,isn't number 13.He's fly-half,or full-back.(in the third team?).Juan Fernandez Lôbbe,the best in the third line,like 8,7,or 6.One of them,should be at the top!

[eridanoooouuuuus]

O'Driscoll is on the second team? What the fuck are you smoking!

[scottishrugby87]

thumbs up if you think he's being bias towards southern hemisphere

[naterugger10]

fucking BOD only made team 2 horseshit adam ashley cooper sucks shit compared to the great BOD

[dobbyqwerty]

Woodcock on team 3? what an insult! Brad Thorn on team 3, what an even bigger insult.

[nuge800]

shocking biase southern hemisphere nonsense o driscoll twice the player of ashley cooper,nathen sharpe should be put down o connell in there..sonny bill williams is a match winner but ma nonu surley has to be 12 best centre in the world..mitchell on the wing should be habana or shane williams,theirry desutoir 6

[ericthehalfbee]

Thanks for that, obviously some thought gone into your lists. As a kiwi I'm biased enough to be surprised by some of your selections and rankings. No Israel Dagg, Piri Weepu, Ma'a Nonu, Ben Franks and especially no Jerome Kaino. Sonny Bill, though exciting at times, is still too green to play a full 80. Also no Pocock. Would rank Desutoir up with McCaw and Pocock. And no Warburton, Faletau or Phillips from Wales??

[Coreybrownboiix]

the only thing i liked was sonny bill and adam ashely cooper!

[mcjojoune]

YA srry

[superCProbloxJ]

11 SHOULD BE JOHNNY WILKINSON HES ALL TIME BEST

[0why0y]

@superCProbloxJ Johnny plays 10 mate....

[10000000dj]

any no. 11 should be bryan habana

just sayin m8

[Louisaboss]

you shoul've done a mix of France and N-Zealand

[benjani90]

Toby Flood? Toby Fucking Flood?

[bartelonga]

and where the hell is ma´nonu

[bartelonga]

Juan hernandez is a number 10 or 15 not a center. And Castogiovani the best 3 of the word i really doubt it

[Ashley12345778]

you need your head testing if you think you can seriously put Cooper ahead of O'Driscoll.

[lynnthomas23]

if your basing it on purely 2011 alone, toby faletau, sam warburton, shane williams would easily make the first team, as would israel dagg, pocock and corey jane

[TheRUGBYFRK]

What about Jean De Villiers & Jaque Fourie, Stormers South Africa, 26 Springbok tests as centre paring.

[Draqu3]

i'll agree with the back for the top team but the scrum seem a bit weak with the exception of a few people

[redsrugby11]

Considering some of these players cannot hold down their own spot in their countries starting line up (Sharp, Sonny Bill, Tialata, Gitaeu, etc) How can they possibly be in the best team/s in the world? Also, you forgot the likes of Pocock, Nonu, Dagg, Tuilagi, Weepu and Bismark Du Plessis. Poor choices for those teams.

[richie74wells]

Wheres O'Gara and wot song is dis

[bigjoeman66]

Where the fuck is Jonah lomu

[mw2glitchingameplay]

@bigjoeman66 lol he retired but he soo good he could make it into the top teams from 1999

[ITS0VA]

these line ups suck where was israel dagg? rene ranger? cory jane?

[Tawhguy]

Ronan O Gara fucken sucks

[rugby1234love]

Theres are really bad no offense

[RedemptionIsland685]

your top 45 players fucking suck stop putting up shit if u don't know anything about rugby

[Kesoza666BOK]

@RedemptionIsland685 Agree this fuckface is watching fooozball....

[TheMpr2010]

toby flood over ronan o gara, jonny sexton, rhys priestland, jonny wilkinson, felipe contempomi.....you'v e got to be joking

[R04dH0us3]

Where was richie gray???? Where was chris patterson???? Where was ma'a nonu???? Where was Z Ngwenya???? The best team was terrrible :'(

[trosselot95]

wtf habana 14?

[DanHemmz14]

THe best team was rubbish? It shud be outside center Manu Tuiliagi and right wing Chris Ashton

[Tizoxic94]

@DanHemmz14 manu tuilagi and chris ashton? is this a fucking joke haha

[saniva1000]

sonny shud be combination wth o'driscol.,

[mono755]

Hernandes center 13?? wtf! hi is playing 10 along time a go... and habana in teh first time lol hi is not the player from the rugby worl cup 2007

[pierrick2509]

and Thierry Dusautoir ? IRB 2011 Best World Player

[ClarkeForPresident]

How did Toby Flood get into the 3rd team ahead of O Gara? And brian o driscoll not in the first team???

[jamie8hodson]

Ashley copper compared to O'Driscoll.... are you fucking retarded? O'driscoll has been named the best center of modern day rugby by nearly every rugby legend....

[Breconroad]

Bro...Sonny Bill?? seriously?? Im a kiwi and I wouldn't have him in the top team. Ma'a Nonu and Conrad Smith should be in there! Conrad and Dan are the nucleus of the All Black backline!

[tinyrugbynerd]

Did anybody else notice that there was 5 kickers in the 3rd team

[MrJuddyboi]

drew mitchell is fuck all compared to shane williams and the fuck is this guy on about and putting brian O'Driscoll in the 2nd team

[zReGaming]

1:48 to 1:58 lol

[zReGaming]

hahahah 1:48 and where are the tuilagi brothers they should be in the best team take out a couple put them in seriously and obviously aussy since some aussys are in there that don't deserve it

[sassy12379]

to each his own, but nonu not even included? ahhh....plain RUGBYish!

[McLeodMediaCorp]

some of those choices are good, I have a feeling your an Australian. In my opinion there are a few players that should be in that best team but one person you MUST include is David Smith!!! one of the worlds top wingers.

[seats4life]

@DrOcTaGoNaPuSrAWr he did play for the all blacks in the world cup, but he didnt get the 12 shirt- that went to ma'a nonu. i love him as a player, but i dont think hes the best 12 in the world right now. i think he could be very good, but right now nonu's better, giteau's a more useful player, and jamie roberts is on his level.

[mullanygregory]

this is fucking rubbish!whoever posted has no idea whatsoever.that is all.

[DrOcTaGoNaPuSrAWr]

O'conner in 3 team...this shit fucked up

[Conndembed]

this is absoloute bullshit!

[jayot33]

sonny bill at number 12.... get fucked, nonu shits on that cunt

[seats4life]

floody better than sexton? disagree, sir. disagree. also, parisse, heaslip are both better 8s than kieran read. genias a more exciting player than du preez, and seeing pocock would be nice. saying ashley-cooper is better than BOD is a joke, and seeing kearney, bowe, healy from ireland, or warburton or roberts from wales would be nice. also, how is sonny bill the best 12 when he cant get that shirt for his national team?

[DrOcTaGoNaPuSrAWr]

@seats4life He kinda played for NZL in the world cup...

[mrjustincredible987]

WHERE THE FUCK IS POCOCK?

he is better than mccaw

[LDSfinest]

@mrjustincredible987 maybe one day lad..maybe one day...

[TheRobinDD]

looking at te fact this video is from 2011 i was surprised, i thought it was very outdated. bryan habana alone in the first team. PA-LEAAAAAAAAAAAASE

[paulsaunders77]

I absolutely disagree with the best team. RWC 2011 confirmed many of the best players in the world at this current time are Welsh. Poor form.

[BadBrad001]

wheres israel dagg?, ans bismark duplessis



[TheDexil]

where is Bryan Habana at 11's position??

[DonLEVANI]

@TheDexil

habana is wing at 14"s position

[nunozfalconite]

where is Dagg, wilkinson, jane, weepu, pocock, conarad smith, donncha o'callaghan, pierre spies, m'a nonu, etc...

[rugby1234love]

why wasnt cory jane in there

[Mrdrox01]

kieran read at 8 for the first team really Pierre Spies is a way better 8

[KCHIEFTAN]

@Mrdrox01Nah, Read is definitely the better No.8.Spies is a lot like SBW in the sense that he is a brilliant athlete but not a great rugby player.

[alexmileshewinson]

I agree with about 3 of them in the entire video.

[bd20391]

also why is toby flood there? he is useless! Morne steyn, johnny sexton to name a few that are in a different league!

[bd20391]

No david pocock or kurtley beale???

[PadtheLad12]

aside from that though not bad....some issues with the first team but all in all i agree with most...who'd be your captains?

[PadtheLad12]

brian o'driscoll in your second team? tut tut.....

[renatozaraskyz]

Cade Chabal



[Thehiman94]

The second team would beat the first team.

[atnmsfts]

good team for 2010 but only a handful of these players would still be in the top 45 now.

[Marshal3456]

sergio parisse, jonny wilkinson, dan carter , ma'a nonu, piri weepu, fourie du preez, sébastien chabal, mauro bergamasco, percy montgomery, jerome kaino, stephen donald

where are they ??????

[lionplonker]

@Marshal3456 Chabal is overated, Percy retired a few years ago, Stephen Donald isn't even that good.

[44redman1]

[2x1is2]

Nice one pal! You missed out half of the worlds best players.... Kaino, pocock, warburton, that's just the flankers you missed out. Id start again if i were you mate.

[JamesJ008]

People you have to remember this video is 11 months old now. Rugby changes incredibly quickly

[didierbrouzes]

where is dagg ????? =o

[LandOfLeon]

lol really? nonu, kaino, and weepu all made the finals for player fo the year, dont even think they featured in this list. and the french dude who got player of the year only made the second team? and sbw cant even start for the AB's... how does he make the 2011 top team in the world?

[c1hampio1n]

how do u forget: David Pocock, Kurtley Beale, Pierre Spies, Francious Hougaard, Vincent Clerc, Georth North, Alesana Tuilagi.

This is just to name a few so many more that would have been betta choices

[poper123999]

[robbiemcd3740]

mate this is pretty poor



[125rugbyfanatic]

@robbiemcd3740 i agree seems like a noob lol

[Julokaibre]

Mas is good prop, but the best prop in world rugby is Carl Hayman, he's a bloody fortress in the scrum department and gets around the paddock as good as any other top light prop.

[GoweExile]

I knew this wasn't meant to be serious when you put Andrew Sheridan as your first choice Loose-head

[mptms123]

1-Cian Healy 2-Kevin Mealamu 3-Ben Alexander 4Richie Gray 5-Victor Matfield 6-Sean O'Brien 7-Richie McCaw 8-Sergio Parisse 9-Ben Youngs 10-Dan Carter 11-Brian Habana 12-Ma'a Nonu 13-Brian O'driscoll 14-James O'connor 15-Israel Dagg

[kickassberrow]

@chuchilovelock1 wheres the welsh players

[taweraster]

@chuchilovelock1 Is your brain semi functional? Dusautoir is a Blindside/Openside Flanker not a lock, Pocock is an Openside/No.8, Wilkinson has never been any good at anything other than kicking, O'Driscoll is severely overrated, Habana hasn't been great since 2009 and Alesana Tuilagi hasn't done anything special against any top class opposition.

[chuchilovelock1]

@taweraster i dont give a shit about ur opinion u dumb cunt

[taweraster]

@chuchilovelock1 You play Dusautoir at lock, Pocock at blindside, Morne Steyn at scrum-half and Wilkinson at inside centre yet I'm the "dumb cunt"? At the very least learn to type with proper grammatical structure before having the audacity to demean someone by calling them a "dumb cunt".

[gnoballib594]

@AlexIsTheGrunge Fourie du Preez wasn't really wow in 2011 , Genia on the other hand WOW , just an opinion not attacking or critisizing your team
