Who's regarded as Australia's greatest ever rugby union player? Why was he so good?

As a New Zealander there are a lot of great rugby players, both in union and league.  David Campese was my favourite.  I remember him when in 1982 he beat our best winger, Stu Wilson, at that time I thought Stu Wilson was the best winger ever.  Ever since then I always thought he was great, he may have had a few defficiencies but that does not negate his skills.  Even when he knocked us out of the World Cup in 1991, I can still remember a year later the All Blacks were saying they have no fear of him he's just one player in a very talented team.  David Campese gets the ball and you see 15 All Blacks panic.  His skills are legendary.  I am not saying he's the best Australian rugby player but I like him.

Rod Laver. He won four grand slams in Tennis. Plus the quality of opposing players in his times was very high. They were legends in thier lifetime. A galaxy of super tennis players appeared at that time.

I agree with you completely. Lennox Lewis is the greatest champion and the greatest boxer in the history of this sport. First he had an excellent amateur career that he crowned with an Olympic gold medal in 1988, and as a professional he was in my opinion the greatest heavyweight champion ever to step foot in a boxing ring. He defeated every opponent he ever faced in his career (McCall and Rahman by a way of rematch) and he had all the attributes that a perfect heavyweight boxer is supposed to have - starting from basic height, weight and strenght advantage in almost every match to perfect technique, awesome knockout power and most importantly unprecedented boxing talent that he has been showing throughout his career.\nAli, Fraiser, Liston, Foreman, Holyfield, Tyson, Klitschko brothers and so on are all great heavyweight boxing champions but none of them is a match for Lennox in my opinion.

Ricky Ponting!!\n\nWinning is always kissing his feet, due to his attitude and aggression. You will hardly find him out of focus when a match of Aussie is going on.\nHe is the all-time powerful player in the world of cricket, although statistics will show little bit different then my statement.\n\nBUT RICKY PONTING IS THE REAL HERO OF WORLD OF CRICKET

It wasn't a great game, but of course the weather conditions were hardly ideal. I was surprised how much running play there was considering the wet ball. \nThe All Blacks never looked like being beaten, but it was closer than many predicted. My man of the match: Byron Kelleher.\nGo the AB's next weekend against Argentina!

Stefan Edberg, he was truly a class act.  He was so highly thought of on tour that they named the sportsmanship award after him.  He was a very gifted serve and volley player and his talent took him to #1 in the world.  He treated all the other players on tour with respect and never got a big head.  Even with everyone telling him how great he was, he always remained modest.

The All Blacks no doubt are the best rugby team in the world. No one can come closer.\nThe top 20 rugby players:\nDaniel Carter ....(All Blacks)\nBrian Kelleher ...(All blacks)\nPersi Montgommery ...(SA)\nBrian Habana ......(SA)\nTikiri...... (Auss)\nGeorge Gregan ...(Auss)\nBrian O'Driscoll ....(wales)\n\nI should stop here! Coz Most of the top 20 in the world are from the ALl blacks and its an insult to name players from other teams!

Australia through grit and determination, made a lot of people who were neutrals, pick a side.  \n\nBe proud, because pride in this case is the fact that they held up the flag and every Ozzy was proud to a be a part of that.\n\nBe proud because, even I, a long time Brazilian supporter found myself, secretly of course, wanting to see the Australians pop one goal in..\n\nPride in this case isn't just about performance, its about giving everyone a dream.  and sharing something like that is Brilliant.

That's a pretty tough question. There are so many "greats" out there that it wouldn't be a fair statement to say someone is the greatest!

In my lifetime, the best 2B has been Ryne Sandberg, he was a great fielder, had good speed and stole bases, hit for average and power. My favorite all-time Cub...that's saying something coming from a die hard Cards fan. He just played the game the way it should be played...with that attitude of baseball owing him nothing and him owing baseball everything he had. He was fun to watch.\nBut of all-time, Rogers Hornsby had some unbelievable stats that will never be matched. Ever.
