andy, I can't dispute your team except for 3 points.
1. I assume your comment re 1st choice and captain was meant to be Matfield NOT Botha, No one in their right mind would make Bakkies captain!!
2. After last saturday I would have to rate Carney ahead of Byrne at fullback.
3. I rate Mortlock ahead of BOD, but that's JMHO.
A good side though. Who will they play against? The Klingon 1st XV? |

| Well said Andy. If you look at current form, you have picked a very good team. I know it hurts the kiwis BUT it's a fact that there's better players in almost every position except fullback than any other kiwi. This might change in this upcoming tri nations. |

| Just the Welsh you have a grievance with RC or the lack of NZs?? I thought this was a world team not Just SA AUS NZ. |

Well RC most on here have put the SA front row down, if nort in all three positions most of them, It seemed to me that we beat them last Saturday so we should be in front of them, just logics RC not favouritism.

I think you need a few more Welsh in your team andy.
You'd think with all those world best players they have- they'd not get humbled on such a regular basis.
Must be that old 'team of champions' thing. |

Just looked at the lions side for sat,This is not an excuse Renee but the other tests I thought we had a 50/50
This time We've been decimated by injuries and the core of the side has gone I suspect a valiant fight, but the third test will go to SA Me thinks. |

Murdered, Might not be the right word Sure, 5 meter scrum Welsh front row pushed them back and up. scrum in the middle of the field, Welsh front row pushed them back, next scrum Welsh front row wheeled them 180, If the two welsh props had not gon off in the 45th min SA scrum would have been breathing through their asses by the end.
You picked Adam jones, a very good choice in my opinion, But after seeing him play one game???
I take it you did see the game??
BTW you were right about the SA 8, he's a hare nothing else. did'nt see him until uncontested scrums.
So you see Even I can be wrong. :0)))
Still your friend Andy. |

| Agree. I saw almost every game played. My wife say there's something wrong with me. I know almost every player in world rugby but can't remember her moms birthday :-) I spend most of my time couching or watching rugby. Wife don't think that's very funny. |

That's true horak. I haven't seen the Argies play since RWC 07.
It's all about perspective. I'll bet anyone from the NH would pick lots of irish and welsh players. |

Well done with the change :-) Looks much better now,hehehe
I see no one has any Argentinians in there teams. They have at least 2 world best players in their team. I guess the only reason for not having them in your teams is because no allot is known about them. |
