Former Wales star James Hook has picked three World Cup-winning Springboks in his all-time dream team.

Hook’s lineup includes nine World Cup winners and two former World Player of the Year winners.

“I just couldn’t get over his X-factor,” Hook said of Brits. “He spent a lot of the time in the backfield, where hookers rarely stray, and had a fantastic array of skills. He was on top of the basics but he could also handle, run and pass like a back.”A 2007 World Cup hero, Bok winger Bryan Habana forms a back three with Kiwis Joe Rokocoko and Mils Muliaina.

“I remember Shane Williams facing him in South Africa in 2008. It was a battle within a battle and Shane edged it, which showed how good he was, but on other days Habana caused Wales no end of problems.”
