David Humphreys? Seriously? Do you actually know anything about rugby? About half of Irish fans demanded he play instead of O'Gara for half of the decade.

Re: Worst 10 of the Six Nations (ever)
Wow, simply wow. There are some very good 10's in that list that you compiled to be the worst ever....
Humphreys was one of the best Ireland ever produced...
Jenkins was the first to break 1000 international points...
I am not going to comment further....

I am not saying Humphreys was bad, just naming a lot of 10's to give people more choice.

Toby Flood Dublin 2011 would be near the top.
Some very good tens in that list.

Its a poll for the WORST 10's in the 6N right?
I am really missing something here if you name great players in a worst of poll........

Did Lamaison actually play in the 6N much? or indeed Jenkins? Thought they were more from the 90s. From that list Goode, Harris and Pez were pretty awful.

I voted for Neil jenkins just to shake things up a bit. It's a shame Johnny Wilkinson isn't on the list, now that would create some debate.

Italy have had a few dubious selections at 10 over the years - probably the one position where on-going weakness has let them down since Dominguez's retirement.
At least they didn't try Bergomasco there...

As off form as he was then that's still better than Barkley was at 10.

Iestyn Harris should never have made it into the national side. His first game of professional union, he threw the ball deliberately into touch (Cardiff V Llanelli), and the ref said something along the lines of 'oh, you didn't know that was against the rules, ok then its a lineout, but remember not to do it again.'

I think the OP was planning a well disguised "Slate on Dan Parks"
That is why he brought so many other "weak" players in.
Sadly it backfired.

Is it in any way apt that the OP (beast)'s moniker rhymes with troll?

Barkley was good at 10 in 2003 RWC to be fair to him

Barkley did play well at FH against USA, then got injured for the game against SA (which featured Catt and Farell as a 10-12 partnership), returned to play IC for a couple of matches (not very well either) before getting injured again. So yeah, one good game at 10.

Adding a second quote without naming the person you're quoting is easy, highlight your quote and click the speech bubble button above the editor.
To include a name you have to put in some html coding

I went for Iestyn Harris even though I felt he was chucked in far too early and had way too much pressure on.

I went for iestyn but thinking about it, I reckon Goode's boredom inducing style combined with his 52 inch waist probably snatch it. Either way both of them were far worse than parks.
