Carter, Mealamu and Nono - the best attacking back combination in world rugby today, don't you think?

Question

They will cut the 'Boks up on Saturday, I'm sorry to say.

Answer 1

Yes they are a combination because they are in the same team.  Dan Carter is the best stand off currently ... but I think that h**e is a better hooker for the AB's in the current selection.  Nono is awesome attacker but what position? In the Hurries he plays like an extra flanker.  Henry has at least got him standing wider and passing (?) as well as charging. He will get better ...

Best combination? No. Sorry.

But I agree that they will stuff the Springbucks now that Smit has gone.

Answer 2

carter yes! rest i don't think so!!!

Answer 3

Didn't work for them in the quarter finals of last year's World Cup.  I'm sorry to say.

Answer 4

I agree, but i think you mean Mils Muliaiina, not Keven Mealamu, he`s a Hooker.

Keep your eye on Conrad Smith too , he`s no slug.

Answer 5

Think  Joeblow has added the needed correction, unles you are trying to be funny suggesting that we are not comitting enough tight players to the breakdown.

Smith and Kahui are the missing mid feilders - and when ether one combines with DC or Ma . . . like a hot knife through butter.

Answer 6

they are excellent

but i still think the french combination of heymans clerc and rougerie (fullback and 2 wingers) have the edge

Answer 7

Of course it is, the All Blacks always have the best attacking back combination in world rugby.

Answer 8

carter easily best first five in the world.... for years i have been doubting him but this year i think he has finally stepped up to that mark that he was at against the lions in 2005, mealamu isnt a back lol but he is pretty gud almost unstoppable from 3 metres out. and nonu well he is gr8 fast strong and a good step on him. well the all blacks are the best as long as its nt wrld cup year lol.  that test last week brang back the good hard , on the edge of you seat tri nations that i remember as a kid.  Go the mighty AB's

Answer 9

Good question Bumschitz. Would hate to see Mealamu out wide though. Best attacking back combination? Maybe (with the exception of Mealamu), but the Aussies usually have quite a few good attackers throughout their backs, and obviously if Habana cut loose with his currently unfit mate Jaque Fourie they could be pretty destructive together, then again Rokocoko fit and in full flight is a sight to see, how about Juan Martin Hernandez and Filipe Contepomi for Argentina (when they actually get to play together)?

Answer 10

dan carter is with out a doubt the best first five eight in the world. he can actually play rugby no just kick, and yeah theothers r awesome too. i agree.

Answer 11

Carter, MULIAINA, and Nonu are a great combination but it's hard to say...I'd love to see Kahui given a go as well....

Good to see Nonu being given more game time....
