Mike Brown should definitely be in the top 10.

I'd have Haskell closer to the top.

Danny Care is missing. tw@t.

bgclaw, I'd have Stringer at 9. So many others have hit him. Tells you a lot.

Never thought I'd sing this, but:

We all dream of a team of Ronan O'Garas, a team of Ronan O'Garas, a team of Ronan O'Garas
And number one, is Ronan O'Gara,
And number two, is Ronan O'Gara...

You get the idea.

Can I ask why?

He had a reputation when he was younger as being a bit hot-headed (indeed at Quins his nickname was 'Mr Angry'!) but now, he's pretty much the first name on the team sheet. He's consistent, probably the best fullback in England, hasn't got in a fight for a few seasons now(!) and he seems like a nice enough chap.

Obviously is well appreciated. ROG tops the 'Don't agree' list with 117 now. Voted out of the Top 10 and is now second last (14) with bismarck du Plessis last.

I know you're a Quins fan, but you're being completely one-eyed if you think Brown is a likeable character. He's forever mouthing off on the pitch instead of just getting on with the play. His incessant efforts to get under the skin of ROG in the Amlin SF in 2010, which culminated in him ripping ROG's compression top, were completely out of order and in my view tainted one of the finest days in your club's history. I think he's an exciting and talented player, but that doesn't mean he's not eminently punchable.

Surely Courtney Lawes is the biggest omission?

Does Henson count as a current rugby player?

If it means he gets a smack in the face then yes.

He's just signed for London-Welsh- apparently!
Anyway it would be a shame to eliminate him from any slapable list, just because he stopped playing.

Since we are loosening the criteria can Will Carling be added to the list?
