Greatest All Blacks XV (pro era) - full back
Another interesting one. I can't believe MacDonald got 27 starts at fullback. I've bent the rules a little and included the top 5 in the short list. Having ruled Ben From Accounts out of the wingers' poll it would be a bit rough to not put him in the fullbacks' one!

This is quite a tough one. Consistency weighs in heavily for the accountant. Shredding opposition is Cullen. Dagg has his charms, but sometimes the choke gets stuck on.

Similar to the Lomu one, really. Ben Smith probably a far better fullback, more ruthlessly efficient and well rounded - a representation of the AB sides of the last 5 years.
Cullen; far more flawed and a much narrower skill set. But he was just magical, there is no other word for it.

/thread.
EDIT: Turning Gregan inside out in #18 alone is just about enough for my vote.

A couple of sweetly timed passes from Zinny out wide should look very familiar to Kieran Reid fans.

Love the accountant, but voting for Cullen. Which means I've gone for the front-row and back 3 of 96/97 era, and the rest all 2011-15, I think.

I like the Saffa contribution to number 17.

Has to be Cullen. Although the accounts lad is something special too.
