World's top 100 players
OK, it's according to the Daily Torygraph. How many do you agree with? Only two Tigers make the cut.
Here's the list. Just click on any of the pictures and start the countdown.

Re: World's top 100 players
Mmmmmm! Methinks that those who put the list together have been a bit generous to one or two of our England colleagues (Marler; Robshaw? Farrell?) and a bit tough on others (Mike Brown?) Surprised not to see at least one of Cole, Parling or YBY in the list.
Saints have six in the list. Quins have three.

Re: World's top 100 players
No Dan Cole and Owen Farrell in...Don't know if I should even bother reading..
Re: World's top 100 players
Joe Marler in but no Dan Cole!! And if Hartley gets in so should Tom Youngs
Re: World's top 100 players
If you asked someone who actually runs/played the game the list may well be different. It's a bit like Dean Ryan, nice guy but often talks rubbish.
Leicester Tigers 1995-
Nottingham 1995-2000
Swansea (Whites) 1988-95
A game played on grass in the open air by teams of XV.

I suspect this list list was selected by ex-backs. I only counted two tight-heads in the whole 100.

Digby Ioane "has proved a hit in Paris" - he was just listed among the worst ever top 14 transfers.

One of them is Mcgeechan, isnt he supposed to know everything about rugby in Britain another is Oz, well there you go then
Re: World's top 100 players
I find in pointless having props, full backs etc in the same list.

Pointless article, really. Guessing it was a slow news week (until this afternoon)!
