I wonder how they decide which characters to use, not similar colours or anything

On the topic of jerseys, how do the sizes run for the classic strips?

If I was picking another all-rounder, I'd use that as a tiebreaker, so Kallis instead of another batter, or Sir Paddles instead of another bowler, or Gilchrist instead of another 'keeper (could pick him as an all-time keeper on keeping skills anyway, but batting is a handy tiebreaker). Imran was tremendous with bat and ball, but IMO wasn't quite as good a bowler as Sir Paddles (not that he needed to be once Wasim and Waqar were in the team...).
Always a fun exercise!

I think the Chiefs one looks pretty good. Crusaders is naturally ruined by the sponsor. Not sure about Highlanders.

Look, I love Beaudy to bits, but he is not the player he was a few years ago. For me, DMac should be the locked in 10 for the ABs; he's one of the few who creates with pass and pace. Mo'unga wsa getting better, but after 4 years in the jersey you'd expect more from him. And who knows how he comes back from Japan. He never really delivered at Test level in the 10 jersey.
I've been over BB for some time and not sure Richie is/was consistently a better 10 than DMac.
I was among DMac's biggest detractors on this site and even I've come around to the firmly held belief he's matured into our best option.
Agreed.
And one of the things we need to look for this year is how well Robertson and co. develop options at 10 to back him up. Needs to look for newer talent and not harp on about RM or see BB as anything other than a short-term option.

Mind you I can't talk I like that a bit in sport (actually in life) especially rugby I see the positives and enjoy them Just figure my life is too short to look for what's wrong all the time.
Thanks for the life advice Dan.

Kirwan seems like a nice guy. Punditry and commentary did not suit him.
He is the only one with a bit of personality on the show and was not afraid to upset people.
Clearly not what they want from their team
