The Singha 7s have gotten me wondering, if your team was to make a proper 7s team (So if all of their 1st team players were available for inclusion) what would it look like.

My Chiefs one would be:
1. Sam Hill
2. Sam Simmonds
3. Don Armand
4. Dave Lewis
5. Henry Slade
6. Michelle Campagnaro
7. James Short

8. Jack Nowell
9. Ian Whitten
10. Will Chudley
11. Ollie Devoto
12. Lachlan Turner

I'm sure an Academy 9 could probably replace Lewis or Chudley in a 7s team but I simply don't know enough about them to warrant it.
I've got Hill, Nowell and Whitten as forwards as most of the Chiefs' forwards are much bigger and stronger than they are fast and explosive, so I've gone for their bigger backs.
 
Okay erm
1) Manu
2) Thacker
3) Croft
4) Youngs
5) Burns
6) Betham
7) Veainu

8) Evans
9) O'Connor
10) Simmons
11) JPP
12) Yawyawa/Tait
 
Nice idea

1. Banahan
2. Louw
3. Faletau
4. Matawalu
5. Ford
6. JJ
7. Watson

8. Denton
9. Mercer
10. Rapidly running...
11. Out of...
12. Backs....
 
Not for 7's IMO.
I think people forget how good he was before the 2014 season at Glous.

Maybe have him on the bench instead of Yawyawa/Tait.

I think you've gotta fit him in somewhere, he may be the best 12 in the world ATM. Personally I'd have him above Burns as I think he has a better running game, but granted I haven't seen a lot of Burns.
 
No idea what forwards Pests would pick but their backs should be able to tear anyone apart.

Launch
Taylor
Gaskell
Simpson
Cips
Wade
Daly

Can Eastmond hook??

In 7s anyone can hook. Eastmond as a forward is actually a pretty good shout. I'd like to see Hughes as well as maybe Johnson is there aswell though. Plus, Halai's been playing as a forward in 7s. There should a spot for him.

For Wasps I'd go for:
1. Hughes
2. Eastmond
3. Halai
4. Simpson
5. Cipriani
6. Daly
7. Wade

8. Johnson
9. Young
10. Robson
11. Beale
12. Miller
 
It was reported season before last that Myall was only slower than Wade, Varndell and Simpson I believe. I think he'd make a very good 7s player.
