Yeah it’s an easy side to select
I’d be more than happy with Arendse ahead of Mapimpi
If Pollard was in contention for selection I’d have him on the bench
He will definitely feature against Tonga

No Pollard is definitely not in contention against Ireland, Rassie has said that already
They want him training and getting up to speed first
He played off the bench for Leicester on Friday which is good

Bismark Duplessis is 39.
He would still be able to throw the ball into the lineouts, scrum, and tackle - not sure about anything else.

Kwagga gives you all the versatility you need.
If it's gonna be an arm wrestle...pick Willemse at 23 and have 7/1 split.
Easy.
