[QUOTE="Peat, post: 700240, member: 42330"] Using the standard definition of age grade in rugby atm would disqualify O'Mahony and McGrath (born in 1989) :P Ditto quite a few people actually... Hooker - Rob Herring's born in 1990 and already has international caps; Fraser Brown at Glasgae likewise, but born in 1989, so I wouldn't count him. All the senior England hookers are too old but there's guys like Buchanan and Cowan-Dickie with A-representation. To do an U-25 team for 2015 (1990 or born later), based solely on weight of international representation... 1. Joe Marler 2. Rob Herring 3. Samson Lee 4. Iain Henderson 5. Joe Launchbury 6. Dave Denton 7. Matt Kvesic 8. Billy Vunipola 9. Rhodri Williams 10. Duncan Weir 11. George North 12. Scott Williams 13. Manu Tuilagi 14. Alex Cuthbert 15. Stuart Hogg 16. Rob Buchanan 17. Mako Vunipola 18. Henry Thomas 19. Jonny Gray 20. Rob Harley 21. Kieran Marmion 22. Paddy Jackson 23. Liam Williams Interesting exercise. Slightly gutting to have to type Liam Williams' name, I didn't realise the *** was that young. Ulster's coaching staff have come under very heavy criticism in the last two years; I'm not sure I want the guys currently there associated with the province too much longer, nevermind the Lions. Townsend looks a fine coach in the making. Tandy too. I was to pick one Pro 12 coach to contribute though it would be Foley, who's doing a solid job with Munster and has experience as an international coach. [/QUOTE]
