      @@timmasters1195 Not in this case. The only other SH who comes close in his era was Aaron Smith. DuPreez is a rugby genius and you can confirm that by watching his games. SARugby voted him above Joost for best Springbok of all time. They made a bold claim and they got it right too. He was unparalleled in my opinion

    Honestly I think he goes down as one of the greatest scrumhalves ever. Just such a brilliant mix of pace, physicality (for a 9), composure, and a rugby IQ that is hard to rival.

    I am glad you included at least one of his box kicks, because there has not been any other 9 ever that can kick a ball that high accurately.

      @@aldobonaso3481 I'm sorry, but the peak he had is unheard of in this position. He has revolutionized his position, and if he lacks juice in the last few months, let's not forget that this guy is a bit the equivalent of Messi in rugby in the way he is so strong in so many areas and makes the difference all by himself.
      After, if he is THE best can still be asked. He has not won a World Cup. And there are some competitors in his position, like Fourie, Edwards or Smith.
