The Top 100 Players In World Rugby

pocock

Only one Northern Hemisphere player has been included in the top 10.

The Telegraph have today published their list of rugby’s top 100 players and only one Northern Hemisphere player makes the Top 10.

Richie McCaw is included, despite having retired but his inclusion isn’t the only point up for debate. One David Pocock at 29 for example… Surely he should be higher up on the list?

Take a look for yourself and see what you think.
