Flutey/Fitzgerald 11. SimpsonDaniel 10. O'Gara or Hook. 9. Phillips. Really can't pick properly yet though. No outstanding contender. Cut out some extra options and it's not all that similar. And on Current form. There my backs. [/b][/quote] That is an insane selection. That backline would get crucified. Steyn, De Villiers, Fourie, Habana et al would be creaming in their pants. Kearney is excellent, but I'd still go for Byrne. You'd say I'm biased but I see him every week and he is absolutely outstanding in every match. Halfpenny is slight right now and very inexperienced. O'Driscoll, alright because of no real standout 13, but I'd like to see Earls there by next summer. Henson has to start at 12. Sinbad should have a place in the team/22, but to leave out the best player in the world, who ripped SA to shreds in the summer is downright ludicrous. O'Gara shats his bean when the pack aren't giving him an easy ride (which they won't be) and Hook should be playing second fiddle to Biggar right now at the Ospreys so. Phillips, fair enough. We need another big guy, more limited than the other contenders but has extra size and muscle. Go figure. [/QUOTE]
