What's with the little glowy colors for names - is that supposed to mean something (secret hanshakes anyone?)
Isn't it a bit pathetic that an English poster has little glowy names for Italy, and none for Irish players, and Italy are in our group and the only likely team to cause us an upset (arguably) It's like a form of witchcraft. It's immature, and devoid of any kind professional insught, serving only as an (effective) annoyance. Give it up please. GROW up!!
 
Psychic Duck isn't English, I believe (He's Welsh, I think?)
Also, I think the flashing players are the "impact players" for each team - more likely he just forgot to do them for Ireland than it's some huge conspiracy against Ireland...
 
I had to change the template from the original first post as it wouldn't let all the squads onto it, the new one isn't as good but at least says all the squads

OK, I missed Ireland by accident

TRF_Olyy: when you puts the squads as the main page, please put BOD and POC or Heaslip as the star player

also anybody knowledgeable on Japanese rugby, can you tell me who the star forward and back of from Japan are because I don't know as I don't watch Japanese rugby

I left the Namibia, Romania and Georgia backs too and was hoping someone who knows more about the players could tell me who their star back and forward are

I had to change the template from the first post as it wouldn't let all the squads onto it

Oh, he must have just "forgot" Japan too. And it's not a huge conspiracy theory against Ireland or Japan (managed by Eddie O'Sullivan btw) , it's a very sad little story of a sad little man with a pitiful little agenda. *sob*

Eddie O'Sullivan manges the Eagles. Yes, I am paranoid. Where's my pipe?

For Japan their star forward would be number 8 Ryu Holani and their star back would be centre/winger Alisi Tupuailei.
For Tonga, you need to list Vunga Lilo as a fullback, Semisi fisilau as a scrumhalf and Viliame Iongi as a wing. Their star forward is Nili Latu (who has returned to the team) at openside flanker and star back would be winger Viliame Iongi.
For Samoa you have Cencus Johnston as their star forward which I feel isn't the case as he will be likely to start on the bench. I feel their star forward (if I had to chose one) atm would be starting blindside flanker Taiasina Tuifua.
For Namibia def their best player in the forwards is openside flanker Jacques Burger. Not sure about the backs though.
For Romania Fly Half/Fullback Lulian Dumitras would be their star back
For USA Their star back is unquestionably winger Takudzwa Ngwenya
For Russia I hear their star back is winger Vasily Artemyev who is a real livewire and plys his trade for the Northampton Saints.
 
I like the new template better, tbh.

Thanks for the effort, this will be a very useful thred. You've just been repped!
 
This is what your tables should look like for Samoa, Tonga and Japan

I'd say Ulster aren't happy IMO they mainly named Muller captain in the hope he wouldn't go.

So now from an Irish perspective on players missing it's

Leinster:13
Munster:9
Ulster:7
Connacht:a big whopping 0
Click to expand...

How can you be so ignorant of your own superstar Fetu'u Vainikolo?

Also, Ulster lose 9 - Court, Best, Ferris, Wallace, Trimble, Danielli, Afoa, Muller, Pienaar. Muller was the right call as captain, whether he went or not.

For Georgia star back would probably be Merab Kvirikashvili, Forward can either be Davit Zirakashvili or Mamuka Gorgodze. whichever you want
 
Players by team from the World Cup squads



which teams do you think will benefit most or be most harmed by the RWC period?

Because I'm actually a Leinster fan it's all been part of my elaborate scheme muhahahahahahahaha
 
I'd say Tonga'uiha is the star forward for Tonga IMO is the best loosehead in the world.

Despite losing 13 players I think Leinster will be fine thanks to some wise investment and a great academy also it's just 6 league matches.

Connacht will be worst off cause despite losing only one player they've lost their 4 best players and don't have great strength in depth.
 
Treviso will be hit badly but I reckon Aironi won't do that bad at all because of their recruitment.
 
Sale will be better off without Buckley :p

With the exception of Lewaravu/Ostrikov Sale don't particularly need any of the internationals (with Lewaravu/Ostrikov off it means that we're a little short on locks, meaning our lock/6s have to be full time locks, then leaving us a little light in the backrow - also Powell and Vernon away leaves us a little light at 8, with just Easter there)



2nd most number of nationalities in Sales squad then - though we also have a Maldovan player as well :p (though there's probably other teams that will have more nationalities if you count none-RWC nations)
 



which teams do you think will benefit most or be most harmed by the RWC period?
Click to expand...

I think the club teams with mainly home players will be most affected.
Actually, the only way is down down for Leinster and Munster as they are ERC champions and Magners league champions respectively. If they have a successful campaign (SF and up would be seen as successful), they won't be affected much psychologically, but physically they might be.

If they have a bad campaign - especially if they bomb out in the group stage like the debacle of '07 - then that would be a difficult blow and a sure sign of management change (ERC + Magners success not translated into respectable performance in world cup = Kidney sacked) Also, I'd expect several to then look for transfers abroad in that case. Quite a few Irish players considered the move but Irish people seem to be home birds, so they still might stay.

I'm not convinced Irish players are comfortable abroad, especially outside the British isles - either because of distance from the Motherland, or different vibes - e.g. France. Incidentally, almost all, if not all French national side players play in their home league also. So the French are homebirds too, but I would guess some would play in Italy, if the quality there rose.
 
The United States' final 30 has been listed. I can't edit the thread though, so someone else will have to.

I'd say Tonga'uiha is the star forward for Tonga IMO is the best loosehead in the world.

Despite losing 13 players I think Leinster will be fine thanks to some wise investment and a great academy also it's just 6 league matches.

Connacht will be worst off cause despite losing only one player they've lost their 4 best players and don't have great strength in depth.

Tonga'uiha is a great runner but hes hardly the best scrummaging prop going, its not all about highlight plays. he should have a good battle on his hand for the 1 jersey with Taumalolo.. Nilli Latu, Kisi Pulu and Viliame Ma'afu are better players imo. Joe Tuineau will probably be the most important forward though.
 
Before last season I'd have agreed with you but last season he destroyed every scrum in his way obliterating such noted tightheads as Mas and BJ Botha.
