Faletau is the best number eight in world
First topic message reminder :
Jonathan Davies' does it again
"At the moment Wales' Faletau is the best number eight in world. He's a total all-round player, as shown by his incredible stats in this Six Nations."
http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/rugby-union/35765154
But I think I would have a few before him (K Reid for example)
Who is YOUR best No 8 in the world?

What i an saying is that "IF" tOby was the best number 8 in the WORLD, then surely his stas would be higher than Billys.
No surprise you spectacularly miss the point. I'll bold it for you. I should maybe write some random words in capitals as well, so you understand it better.
Carrying stats mean little when Faletau is probably not used the same as Vunipola is. We tend to get our orcs in the backs to do our trucking and our forwards just doing short bursts. So Faletau's yards are going to be limited to kick offs and off a scrum.
Bet yeah, if you need to either try and be clever again for some reason, or otherwise it obviously matters that much to you that Vunipola is better than Faletau then yes you can have your little victory precious.

Have a look at that link majesticimperialman and then you'll see just why people in Wales rate Faletau so highly, we couldn't give a toss if people outside of Wales think he's overrated because the stats in the link will prove how vital and important he is to our team.
I've said it before but if he was a kiwi or South African people would be raving about him
The stats that are a result of him playing more games than the others.
The stats show that he is durable, offers a large threat in attack and is monstrous in defence which is why I said he is important to our team
