It does kinda depend on your babys shape. Not to the extent of cloth but IMO some disposables fit some babies better than others.
I've also found that pricier nappies fit and absorb better
I have long and lean boys with chubby legs.
In order of preference:

Pampers
Huggies
BabyLove
Woolworths Select

BabyLove are probably the most cost effective of those, esp on sale or in bulk (bigW) but I tend to have to go up a size before the weight range indicates.
