Who is the greatest fullback to ever play for the All Blacks? Here are 3 who I think deserve the title.
George Nepia
The greatest Maori athlete ever and possibly the most influential Maori person ever. Nepia was part of the great All Blacks sides of the early 20th century. He helped changed rugby from a game dominated by kicks to the game it is today.
Don Clarke
Before Dan Carter and Grant Fox, there was the boot. His goalkicking was more reliable than gold commodity prices. Everyone remembers the day he kicked the ABs to victory over the Lions, and the day he played his last test.
Christian Cullen
Unstoppable at his peak. The Paekakiriki Express helped raise a generation of All Blacks fans with his unbelievable runs. (Sorry for the overindulgence of videos but there are plenty for the highlight reel).
