Jiffy's Team of the Tournament

[ForensicShoe]

What does everyone make of Jonathan Davies' 6N XV?

Slightly baffled as to how he's managed to slip Jamie Roberts and George North into it. Thought they both had mediocre performances by their very high standards.

yeah don't know how Burrell or Huget isn't in there (trimble has been excellent though so musnt' grumble).

Is this from this weekends games?

Twelvetrees was better than Roberts. Huget should have been in there, over North. And I must be honest I think BOD is just nostalgia because Campagnaro and Burrell was better.

I think it's from the tournament as a whole.

Yeah; "The two teams have been the form sides in the competition and although a few French and Welsh players showed well, it is the top two who naturally provide the bulk of my Team of the Tournament for 2014."

Dylan Hartley?

Rory Best was part of the best lineout, the best scrum and very influential at the breakdown.

Fixed that for ye...

Could understand an argument for Burrell but no way was Campagnaro better than O'Driscoll.

Fair enough I haven't seen every minute of every match but from what I have seen that Campagnaro was very dangerous. If he was Irish he would be a good replacement for BOD.

Did everything Hartley did except give away a dozen penalties.

To be honest I don't think many people outside Ireland actually acknowledge really how good he's been for us ever since his dip in form last year, and I guess people just don't change their minds much.
