No the All Black Team of the late 80's is probably the best of all time closely followed the Welsh side of the early 70's

This Welsh side was arguably the greatest running rugby side to ever grace a rugby field and had a very good set of forwards. However the All Blacks 0f 1986-89 would have beaten them.

The Wallaby side from 1984-86 was also a superb side. They went through a tour of Great Britain and France Undefeated beating the 4 Home Nations and France easily. They are also responsible for reinvigorating the the 15 man game. In the 8 years after the great Welsh sides of 1969-76 Rugby had become very much a territory game with the fly half kicking a great deal for position. However The Australians developed a wonderful running game lead by Mark Ella, who probably along with Barry John of Wales, was the best fly half to ever pull on a boot.

I had the privelge of playing against Mark, Garry and Glen Ella at school boy level, and watching them play for Randwick all their careers and Mark was freakish. The 3 brothers played like they were telepathic.

People, people. Dont be so quick to diss the Springboks. They do hold the world record for the most consecutive test match wins (along with New Zealand) at 17. they might not be the best at the moment, but you can't argue with the record books.

No, they are hopeless, lost their way a while ago and don't look like finding it again.

h**l No!

If it wasn't for that hopeless ref , the Kiwi's would have won.

It was sickening to see how many times the ref let the Bok's play off-side in the second half.

.......and don't get me started on the TV judge.......... he too is a #*`%@~ who needs to learn more about Rugby.......
