Sorry no offence to northern hemisphere teams or guys like colin meads but im judging on who ive watched growing up.

Since i grew up in Tonga and New Zealand I was watching southern hemisphere games the majority of the time.

I didnt grow up watching guys like colin meads so i cant honestly pick legends like him.

15.Mils Muliaina
10.Dan carter but guys like mehrts wilko n los i close bhind they just havnt played much recetly so i picked carter

14.Rupeni Caucaunibuca (Fiji)
13.Mat Giteau (Aus)
12.Brian O'Driscoll (Ire)
11.Lote Tuquri (Aus) - best winger in the world with Caucau IMO
10.Steve Larkham (Aus)/Brad Fittler

(I plan on creating him in the game)
9.Frederic Michalak (Fra)
8.Rodney So'oialo (NZ)
7.George Smith (Aus)
6.Shalk Burger (SA)
5.Chris Jack (NZ)

18.Victor Matfeild (SA)
19.Richie McCaw (NZ)
20.George Gregan (Aus)
21.Joe Rococoko (NZ)
22.Gavin Hansen (Wales)

I think that form is well and truly out of date.

 

[Los Lover]

Mmmmmm....

OK - current...mixture of form and bias!

1. Vetiyaki (spell check)...cos looking at him makes you laugh with fear!
or, more realisticly, Du Randt
2. Kevin Mealamu
3. Carl Hayman
4. Victor Matfield
5. Chris Jack
6. George Smith
7. Richard McCaw
8. Jerry Collins

9. George Gregan

10. Daniel Carter (kicker)

11. Joe Rokocoko
12. Matt Giteau
13. Stirling Mortlock
14. Sitiveni Sivivatu
15. Matt Rogers

reserves: Saimone Taumopeau, Jeremy Paul, Sione Lauaki, Phil Waugh, Carlos Spencer, Tana Umaga, Rupeni Caucaunibuca (all either solid or capable of making an impact)

Oh oh! Where are all my NH players?

nah just jokes.....even though admittedly I have none. I came close to adding Robinson...contemplated Betsen or maybe Lewsey.....just didn't happen

I would have O'Driscoll in the reserves, possibly even starting ahead of Mortlock.....my bad.

Thats it for me not mutch thought but off the top of my head.

P.S Sorry Guys kronfeld prob aint in the game but hve to have him in any team i mention he Rocks!!!!!!!!

almost perfect team, but paul o'connell should be in instead of o'kelly. he's the best 2nd row in the world, possible lions captain also

 

[cavan]

what's the fascination with Chris Jack anyhow? O'Connell and O'Kelly are superior.

An Irish midfield with Fijian wingers .... and a Fly Half who tackles like an Islander ...

 

[cavan]

not bad dude, but i can't stand people who write up fav team withs the likes of:

10. Carlos Spencer/Dan Carter/Johnny Wilkinson

The whole point is that you make a decision about your fav 15, not like 20!

 

[samoan stallion]

Fair comment ..... exclude the players after ' OR ' on my list and that's the 1st Fifteen ....

 

[cavan]

ok dude, sorry it's just a pet hate of mine

Pretty much, the 1995 world cup team except for Colin Meads, Christian Cullen ... and i think Michael Jones, who missed out on the squad because of his faith i.e. he didn't play on Sundays.

I think Michael Jones did enough in his career to warrant a place in anyones World/Best/Awesome/Coolest/Rockingest XV without the '95 cup.
