It’s been a while since we have done one of these…here’s a team I’d like to see play, not necessarily the safest bet.



Jordie Barrett

Penaud

Fickou

Kerevi

Van der Merwe

Marcus Smith

Du Pont

Kitshoff

Marx

Tupou

Etzebeth

Snyman

Francois Cros

Hooper

Savea

Snyman did nothing this season to justify a spot...but the rest is fair I suppose...although I liked the looks of the Irish 11...Lowe.

Marcus Smith - no way in hell. There are calls here to drop him

Hhahaah... just butt hurt because he outplayed Dullard. Actually had a hell of a series against Australia. Lawes has been immense as well. But go ahead and tell us how Ngobongo and Xiabuwawi and other nobodies are "class acts" and best in the world you fucking stump.

No really great 10s around these days...B Barret looked like the stuff, but he lost the plot after being stuffed around too much...RM never really impressed me that much....Ntamac looks interesting, but not really there yet. Biggar and Sexton is solid but that's it...no wonder Smith gets a mention.

There are great 10s, you lot just don't have one yourselves.

Snyman has not played any real rugby for two years - how do you justify that selection?

He has the talent... just been absent. By faaar the best lock prospect since Matf ield.

Nice team there Moz.

I'd drop Cros and Hooper. Tadgh Bierne comes in for Cros, Savea moves to openside and I'd bring in Gregory Alldritt @ 8. 

I'd also drop Smith for Nta mack /Jalibert. 

Plenty of French flavour.

Yes Xavi I should have done the Savea switch and brought in Alldritt…..a most impressive number 8. I enjoy watching Smith but if it was a WC final I’d probably pick Pollard over all these chaps.

Barrett, Pollard, Biggar, Sexton, Ntmack and Russell all ahead of Smith in my opinion Smith has skill but is scared of contact - another Tim Swiel

I agree, nice team Moz...the bankers are 15,9,1,2,4,7 and 8 and the remaining can be debated.

Best belated wishes for your birthday.

Saffesex, shut the fuck up you dimwitted oaf. Marcus just had a hell of a series where he looked the part. Dullard looks like a slow minded kicker.
