Best no8 in the world at present.
Savea would walk onto any international team, no questions about it.
I've said this before but Savea is one of the best I've ever seen in over 20 years of watching rugby. He's not even just a highlight reel player as this video may suggest, has a huge impact on every game and never goes MIA
Agreed been watching for 30 years.
He really is everywhere but also incredibly explosive. I think Michael Jones is the best comparison
100% agree. Some commentator said BOD is potentially best ever player. I'd take Ardie over BOD any day
@@Nellyspence And on the days when you're not on medication?
@@Nellyspence hard to compare. But if you're starting your team with a player who can give your team front foot ball, jackals and all round support play Ardie is your man. But BOD was more of a distributor and at 13 had less opportunity to influence the game. One of my favorites though
@@ciaranoconnor4027 Savea's workrate is massively higher and he's just as influential (and gets tries right through the centre of the field, where it's much more congested and harder)
This video could be made every season. He is THAT consistent
His ability to take the hit and stay upright either in a tackle or cleanout, is unmatched.
Seems like a family thing with them...
Favourite thing about his dummy, noone falls for it yet he persists with it! Shows how brilliant he is lol that he still can't b e tackled.
They interviewed him about it, and he mentioned along the lines of if it gives him another second before getting tackled, then it's done its job
“…no-one falls for it….” - Step forward Nicky Smith!!!
It gives him power
It’s a crime he was overlooked for player of the year
Brian O'Driscoll 141 international caps. Top cap holder in Ireland's rugby history, ever. Top try scorer for his country, ever. Most caps as Captain for his country, ever. Grand Slam winner. Heineken cup winner. Made four Lions squads, so performed over a period of sixteen years at the very highest level. Nominated three times for world player of the year, but never won it. Crime? Sure away and take your head for a wobble.
@@ciaranoconnor4027 hang on a sec we can both agree that pete horne not getting it in 2018 was a crime
@@ciaranoconnor4027 I was referring to this year, and my head is just fine thanks petal.
Drico has been retired for several years. He should have absolutely won it in 2009 though.
@@petermcauley1012 Horne was a very good player indeed. The point I was making is that there seems to be a sentiment in SA&NZ that the best player in their squad should be automatically given the best player award. In 2022 the panel were John Smit, George Gregan, Melodie Robinson, Maggie Alphonsi, Clive Woodward, Brian O'Driscoll, Sir Richie McCaw, Thierry Dusautoir and Fiona Coghlan. They know a lot more about rugby than I and silly-billy PapiChungus there. I trust that panel to make the correct holistic decision, since they would have known what the popular vote was and also how they see the players true contributions in the light of their experience. Savea may never win the player of the year, doesn't stop him from being and being widely accepted as a truly gifted rugby player.
@@chungushumongous94 How is it you know better than the panel of judges? Both this year and in 2009?
He's the goat of rugby imo dudes been a machine for ages
He’s absolutely ridiculous. I’ve had the pleasure of seeing him play in person. Not only can you hear the collisions of his runs but you get the privilege of seeing the way he moves off the ball, constantly looking to position himself to get the jackal. He’s absolutely one of the most brilliant players I’ve ever seen.
To me, he makes it seem like these pro players don’t want to tackle him. He just has that sort of energy that looks like he is on another level, all throughout the game.
That signature dive and dummy of his is just impeccable 😂😂🙌🏽
As a South African and a bok supporterI rate him the best player in the world, just my opinion
Best in the world. It’s his dive for a try for me
…In this generation, Savea is the best, and, in comparison, maybe the best éver.
It hovers on perceptions, but most certainly, even in the AB’s darkest hours, he powered forward in such brilliance, that he became a Saint to many - and THÁT is saying something (carefully) but with MASSIVE weight in consistent SUPERSTAR ‘giving your EVERYTHING’ performances in all jerseys he donnes ~ so, at this controvercial year end with two, maybe three Int Coaches in the firing line and crosshairs, let us focus on Savea’s magnanimity and strength, humbleness of Leadership both in parkplay and in being a superstar RF performer as a person of immense talent.
The very least is a hearty, warm and gracious WW THANK YOU Ardie!
⁉️
👊

My favorite player in world rugby by a mile! A work horse on the field and a gentleman off it.
He is the modern-day raging bull, and the best loose forward I’ve ever seen. He just has it all.
The man isn't even a number 8 and he's the best number 8 in the world anyway. Explosive, fast, powerful, smart, workrate off the charts from start to finish... I'm French, and I really like Alldritt. But give me Savea any day. Probably my favorite player at the moment.
Better player but not a better 8 than Aldritt. He doesn't fill the traditional role of taking kicks or being a sweep defender as Alldritt does.
@@mr.e6748 number 1 role of the 8 is to pick and go from the base of the scrum. I'd rather take on Aldritt than Savea's piston pump knees anyday
@@canadiancontent352 Nah man there is so much more to it than just that, look at Duane Vermeulen in his prime. He did so much more than just charge from scrum.
@@mr.e6748 Like I said, he's not a number 8 in the traditional sense. But if the guy you want in your team is the non-number 8 over the traditional number 8, then I guess he's the best number 8 anyway.
@@mr.e6748 I agree but many players fulfill roles differently. Take Dallagio, who was more of a 6. I'd agree though that Aldritt does the overall duties a bit better as he's bigger and can take the kick return hits.
Great upload. Thank you for the time put in and without needless music too. A massive highlight reel proving he's top tier for so long. Insane to think he's played this good consistantly.
Best player in the world the last couple of years IMHO. Just a fantastic player.
15 minutes is not enough, this guy is insanely good
Thanks again Andrew Ford!! Pace, power, ability, agility, balance, drive, technique, stamina, courage, smart, dedicated, heart, flare, consistent..........please add what I've missed...One of the best players to ever play the game and he's not done yet
Gonna go down as one of the GOATS of rugby
Best in the world right now. Seems like a top guy as well.
He's a stone cold number 8 Best I've seen in while. Legend perfect number 8
2:54 the pace of the man🔥
He is the best player of the world !!! Since 2 or 3 years ...
Has to be one of the fastest players in the world over a short 10m burst, just enough to get him well into space before he slows down to a still pretty fast pace.
The video we all wanted and finally got 🤙
Exactly bro he’s amazing
What a showreel of his game. Thank you Andrew Forde for putting it together and sharing. He plays "Rugby the game played in heaven" just like that description. He is an All Black great already. One of the greatest Rugby players of all time already. One of the greatest players you'll ever see. An absolute joy to watch this man play Rugby.
Ardie is the best player in the world right now and will undoubtedly go down as one of the best to ever do it. All he needs is a World Cup and more people will start realising it
0:23 no one fell for that dummy except for the cameraman 🤣
Sensational talent. Can he kick goals? I wouldn't doubt it
Similar to McCaw in the sense that he is an absolute nightmare to play against and whenever the ball gets near him on defense or attack you kind of hold your breath. I think if the ABs do well next year he will be WPOTY
Like Richie, except Richie had a super power of making the entire team play like Ritchie is on the field. Ardie is missing that but slightly better on the ball imo. Ardie has his days though where he carry the whole dam team.
The dummy pass is actually quite effective for him, consistently.
It's so ridiculous, and he knows it. Defending players spend 0.5 to 1.0 seconds thinking "what a stupid dummy", but during that 0.5 secs Ardie has spotted a gap and taken it.
@@bwatson001 its just cool to see players develop unique tools for their own game style that actually work at the highest level.
signature move 😆
@@Waywind420 So true. I've heard people saying that Ardie doesn't know how to dummy, comments like "it's so obvious, why would they fall for it?" They fall for it because it's totally against what they expect to happen, and opposite to how they've been coached.
Wow this montage is epic. Arguebly the best player in the world. 😊
Two of his best highlights imo were his chase downs on Dave Dennis for the Waratahs and Tevita Li for the Highlanders.
Obviously Ardie deserved a whole 15 👏🏿
That intercept at 10:58 is pure reaction. Insane.
Athleticism alone and rugbg IQ he could play anywhere on the pitch.
Outrageous dummies 🤣 0:22, 1:28, 1:54, 2:29, 3:25, 4:28, 5:57
Best loose forward in the world!
best rugby player I've ever seen
Excellent video mate! How about a similar video on Etzebeth next? (please!)
if ardie was on the irish team they would have no excuse not to give him player of the year
100
Ardies a beast✊✊
One of the best players ive ever seen never seen him have a quiet game always plays well even wen his team is shit
Putting out videos faster than Rassie can tweet
What an Athlete
Shouldv'e been World Player of the Year.
15mins of ardie savea being a beast
That Savea dummy will always get me
Arguably the best player on this planet right now. I was shook he didn't get World Rugby Player of the Year
Shook he wasn't even nominated
He's incredible.
What a brilliant player 🤩
His dummy though 😆😆💯💯 you a legend ardie! 😎
Absolute mad lad
Absolute beast
Never in All Blacks history has one player been the best 6,7 & 8 in the country at one time. The guy just wants to play 7 but Foster has opted to deny him his legacy in that jersey. I hope Ardie gets paid 3 times more then the next highest paid AB.
And watching this, the best 12 and 13 too.
Awesome ardie just absolutely awesome 👌🏾
love the way he sells a dummy, its obvious no one gonna catch it in heaven. love da guy😆
Such a clutch player!
The best player ever and nobody knows it yet
Ardie Savea So Strong keeps them legs pumping !!!
He’s a beast on the field!
I can't get enough of that dummy 😂😂😂😂
We are gonna miss him at the Canes and ABs
Definitely should have got player of year
You might as well do a video with his turnovers on the verge of the try line, he does it so often
Too good
Imagine prime Julian and Ardie together
Ardie is the best no 8 NZ has ever seen & that is in a list than includes Zinzan.
Better than Read?
@@AndrewDavidForde Without a doubt! Maybe even a better leader. Reido was great but Ardie is on another level, he dominates EVERY game in stats & I've seen directly how he has inspired Kiwi children, including my own. :)
@@AndrewDavidForde different players. Read is a great no8 who played it more traditionally along with some highlight reel offloads and elite support play to score/set up tries in an All Black team that was in sync with eachother and dominated for 8-10 years. Ardie on the otherhand is a superstar no7 who has been thrown into no8 because of politics within the All Blacks to keep Sam Cane as captain and Foster as coach. If you had to choose between the two of them i'd go for Ardie simply because in a team thats not firing.. he always fires and he is the heart and soul of many teams he plays in. The Hurricanes have about 2-3 usual All Blacks in their squad whereas the Crusaders, Chiefs and Blues have 10+. Without Ardie that Canes team gets pumped. Without Read that All Blacks and Crusaders team he was in likely still get the job done. Thats not Reads fault of course.. you can only play with the players who around you. But just knowing Ardie has had it tougher in a lot of teams and still rises to the top every game and keeps his team with a chance makes him our best no8 imo. If we take away the position and simply ask the question.. do you choose Kieran Read or Ardie Savea.. most people would say Ardie, and thats with half his highlights and people noticing him coming from playing no8.
Ben Smith you could say was more compelete Fullback than Chrisian Cullen.. but Cullen's freakish talent puts him ahead and as the greatest Fullback. Same goes for Ardie.. just imagine if Ardie had the chance to play 7 the past 7 years since McCaw retired.. could've been arguing whether he's better than McCaw such is his talent.
The All Blacks skipper needs a strong skipper who displays leadership. Cane doesn't cut it, and Whitelock is getting too old. Savea needs to be skipper, if not, then I wouldn't be surprised if he finishes with the Abs
My god he is a very good player isn’t he
Best player in the world
Has the best try dive of all time!
He smoked Ringrose on that first clip. Playing like an 8, center and winger.
He's not a big guy but man he's powerful 😳
14:17 hoh da footwork
Sori cane savea is the man
not sure how he wasn't nominated for player of the year...
You are my role model Ardie
The best 6 7 8 the world's ever seen
Savea what a player future all black captain
Brilliant player but how that pass fake works I’ll never know 😭😭😭
Hey yall I’m new to Rugby & trying to learn more, what league is he in? Why isn’t he in the NRL? Is he able to play for teams like Toa Samoa or Manu Samoa?
@A J thanks man 🙏🏽 are there like all kinds of different Rugby leagues other than NRL & Union?
monster
I reckon our Gabin Villière with 7 more kgs would be close in style! :D Jokes aside, I like those "light" forwards that would be as good as backs, they bring a lot of dynamism to the game. If NZ manages to take advantage of this more consistently, they'll come to the top of the top, and deserve the famous "they are all BACKS"
Is/will his peak be better than Julians? Phenomenal talent
He’s already better mate 😂
@@gamewithwayne4831 I agree but Julian was looking like a GOAT for a spell
His career will be better but his peak won’t be as good as Julian’s
@@BigDave7258 His peak is already better, and his career is far better.
Julian has been 6/10 or worse for more than half of his career now.
@@filthymutt6029 sorry but Julian has 46 tries in 54 all blacks appearances and was the most dominant winger the world has seen since Jonah Lomu when he was in his prime. Yes ardie will have a better career but Julian in his prime was different gravy
14:17 🤣
How does the best player in the world have the worst dummy in the world
la verdad que tevez le va bien este deporte
The thumbnail is incorrect…change the 15mins to 80mins
AB captain next after Cane
How he did not win Player of the year this year… I have no idea
Next year mate.
how much does a rugby ball cost? I mean, the guy makes a living on petty theft
He would've fit right in with the 2013 all blacks. WHO AGREES !☝️!
He should play 13 🤣
no matter how many times you tell an aussie how to pronounce a name probably - they never do it seems to be beyond their capability
Only 15 minutes!
He's just a genetic freak (I mean that as the greatest compliement). You expect a player to sacrifice speed for strength or vice versa, it almost seems unfair that he has it all, on top of that he can jackle, pass and reads the game exceptionally well, I only laugh when I think of our number 8 by comparison (england)
Ardie Savea the Dummy King
