[TRF_Olyy]

I don't believe he wrote this: Wilkinson isn't at 10.


Also, with the exception of Sheridan at 1 (WHAT?!?) that's not far off

:lol:

 

[King_D'Arcy]

Ah C'mon; Lawes? Ashton? I like these lads but I mean... World XV... C'MON!!!

 

[TRF_Olyy]

I presume this is more an AI XV rather than a general world XV (and it's Guscott so he has to have a decent amount of English players in there )
Who would you have instead?

 

[isaac4leinster]

This is Autumn International XV King D'Arce, not best 15 in the world.

Did Sheridan hammer anyone this time round in the scrums?

Bowe, O'Connell and Healy

Fixed

 

[Sam Owen]

Guscotts team is not a bad 15.

 

[gingergenius]

As an AI XV... then Sheridan is definately wrong, SBW is wrong and Drew Mitchell is unlucky not to make it onto the wing instead of Ashton.

 

[Finerz]

I think the list is good, but I think Ross Ford had a very good AI, and I didn't see any other hooker shine.

 

[iWin]

I personally would have had any prop not from Ireland, Fiji or Australia ahead of Sheridan.
Mitchell/ JOC in place of Ashton and Nonu for SBW are also options, but hardly the worst selections in their positions.
I'm with Olyy, there's no way Guscott wrote this. Must have got the wife to do it for him so that there'd be some kind of rugby knowledge involved.

wouldn't have sbw in there after his game aganist wales swap him for Nonu

15. Mils Muliaina
14. Tommy Bowe
13. Brian O'Driscoll
12. Ma'a Nonu
8. Jamie Heaslip
4. Paul O'Connell

The rest is ok though

 

[TRF_Olyy]

I agree, O'Connell played a massive part in the AIs

 

[Leonormous Boozer]

Oh AIs I'll put Lawes back in then

 

[Aedaphon]

For a dominant force in the scrum I'd put my money on the Beast. Lawes is getting there but a bit inexperienced, in my XV I'd put Thorn.

 

[Peat]

Thats quite sane for Jerry.
