The All Blacks Best Haircuts And Their Inspirations

1/10 Ardie Savea/Will Smith: No doubt Ardie has taken inspiration from the Fresh Prince sporting a slightly shaggier version of Will's classic 'do'.

2/10 Ben Smith/Generic Accountant: In the same way you want to know your money is safe with your accountant, you want to know your fullback is safe under the high ball. Ben Smith subtly reminds us of that with his haircut and that's why he's known as 'Ben from Accounts'

3/10 Charlie Faumuina/Tormund Giantsbane: We're convinced that Charlie Faumuina settles down on the couch after training on Monday night for a bit of Game of Thrones sporting a fuzzy beard that would make Tormund and the Wildlings proud.

4/10 Damian McKenzie/ That Guy from Rocky 4: Another debutante in this years All Black squad let's his flowing blonde spike up and deft gravity. Much like the Russian monster Ivan Drago from Rocky IV. Much like the terror Rocky and Apollo felt being in the ring with this giant, McKenzie has been terrorizing defences all season but he looks great while doing it.

5/10

Jerome Kaino/Captain Hook: The two time world cup winner is a veteran of the time and sports it with facial grooming reminiscent of a Shakespearean actor. It wouldn't surprise us if Kaino's been watching the latest Peter Pan with his goatee comparing well to Hugh Jackman's 'Captain Hook' character.

6/10

Elliot Dixon/Khal Drogo: Are these All Blacks doing Game of Thrones marathons together? Though in it's infancy, newcomer Elliot Dixon has taken his cue from the leader of the Dothraki with a fine beard that's taking length and a spirited top-knot.

7/10

Joe Moody/Gregor 'The Mountain' Clegane: There is is! We're convinced. Joe Moody is a strongman holding the All Blacks scrum and he knows the power his hair brings after seeing Hafþór Júlíus Björnsson in Game of Thrones and on the Worlds Strongest Man circuit.

8/10

Liam Squire/Miley Cyrus' Dad: It's been a long long time since we've seen a mullet in the All Blacks but alas Liam Squire has decided to take the mantle. It reminds us of Billy Ray Cyrus who is known for the song 'Achy Breaky Heart' and being the father of Miley Cyrus. There are plenty of quality mullets in the world but we wouldn't be surprised if Billy Rays mullet is the father of Liams.

9/10

Malakai Fekitoa/Elvis Presley: Malakai has a wavy slick do that is well groomed and classy. The thickness and flow stands out when the camera is panning from close up to close up of the rugby players, making us (and one or two viewers) think "Wow I need to go put on Jailhouse Rock after the game" Malakai and Elvis, they're spot on.

10/10

Ryan Crotty/Simon Cowell: Crotty plays it pretty stock standard with the haircut but the little features and maintained squareness chiseled in reminds us of the super-mega-ultra-ruthless judge Simon Cowell. We'd love to know what Simon thinks because he wouldn't hold back
