All Blacks in their true position
1 Sonny Bill Williams: played prop for NZ schools.
2 Richie McCaw: missed the opportunity of playing for the All Blacks to in his 40s by not switching to Hooker.
3 Inga Tuigamala: Played Prop in the Wigan-Bath cross-code game in mid -1990s. Looked okay.
4 Jonah Lomu: played Lock for NZ Schools
5 Jordie Barrett: more suitable position for the giraffe.
6 Tana Umaga: Defensive impact could have been deadly at blindside
7 Eric Rush: played Openside at NPC Level
8 Carl Hayman: Obviously
9 Keven Mealamu: Passing was good enough to play Half Back
10 Israel Dagg: Obviously
11 Vaea Fifita: Never happier than running down the wing (or inspecting rucks)
12 Michael Jones: Could have played midfield at International level
13 Ardie Savea: Could have played midfield at Super Level
14 Sean Fitzpatrick: Described in 1993 by Stu Wilson as "the best ring-wing in the country"
15 Zinzan Brooke: Great under the high ball, superb passing and kicking skills too.Liam Messam would’ve made a pretty good centre I reckon. Ardie at 12 is another obvious one.
Victor Vito played wing for the 7s.
Mealamu played as a loose forward once upon a time.
Andy Ellis was a number 8 back in the day.
