Dream team

01 Gethin Jenkins, Excellent scrummager, complete beast around the field.
02 Bismarck du Plessis, need I say more?
03 Adam Jones, another great scrummager. Second choice would be Afoa, to see him play with Gethin.
04 Luke Charteris, immense workrate.
05 Alun Wyn Jones/Andries Bekker, both good athletic locks.
06 Juan Smith, a great leader and dominant force around the field.
07 Sam Warburton
08 Toby Faletau, another with a great work rate (and awesome hair)
09 Mike Phillips, such a handful around the field.'
10 Patrick Lambie, a talented and exciting young back, so much skill.
11 Shane Williams
12 Francois Steyn/Jamie Roberts, both big lads but with different playing styles.
13 Gavin Henson, can alternate 12/13 on field with either Steyn or Roberts, couldn't leave Gavlar out.
14 JP Pietersen, so much strength and a great defender.
15 Leigh Halfpenny, outstanding runner and a powerful clearing boot.
This saved me some time. Dan Lydiate on the blindside, Tipuric or Brussow on the openside on current form.
Adam Ashley-Cooper at outside centre.
