The former Sharks loose forward picks a team of the best he has played with and against.

15. Chris Latham
I loved the way he went about his game. He had some real X factor.

14. Bryan Habana
He was responsible for some heartache when I played against him. But there was nothing but joy when watching him score for the Boks.

13. Tana Umaga
He was never rushed and had a real presence in midfield.

12. Frans Steyn
Frans has real vision and skill and knows when to turn it on.

11. Lote Tuqiri
Lote has it all: pace, skill and size.

10. Freddie Michalak
He was mercurial and great for the team during his time in Durban.

9. Fourie du Preez
The GOAT. Fourie simply has a great rugby brain.

8. Rodney So’oialo
Rodney was aggressive and physical. A player who would always be in your face.

7. Andre Venter
A player I have big respect for. A big man with a great work rate.

6. George Smith
In his heyday he could singlehandedly win a game with his impact at the breakdown.

5. Johann Muller
Johann is hardworking and honest. A great leader.

4. Bakkies Botha
Intimidating. If he had your number it was a long day at the office.

3. Carl Hayman
A prop as tough as they come.

2. Bismarck du Plessis
Bismarck is extremely competitive. A man for the big games.

1. Os du Randt
A player ahead of his time as a prop. A two-time World Cup winner.
