Hi Guys

Since i'm South African i will obviously be playing my first World Cup in the game with them.

South Africa's first match is against Wales.

Here is my match 22 for that very important opening match in my campaign.

1 Tendai Mtawarira
2 Bismarck du Plessis
3 Jannie du Plessis
4 Bakkies Botha
5 Victor Matfield
6 Schalk Burger
7 Juan Smith
8 Willem Alberts

9 Fourie du Preez
10 Morne Steyn
11 Gio Aplon
12 Jaque Fourie
13 Jean de Villiers
14 JP Pietersen
15 François Steyn

16 Gurthrö Steenkamp
17 John Smit
18 Andries Bekker
19 Danie Rossouw
20 Patrick Lambie
21 Bryan Habana
22 Francois Hougaard
 
Need Lambie starting more young blood required. Mvovo for Peitersen, Bekker for Bakkes. not bad though
 
OK for Ireland I'd have:

1. Healy
2. Flannery
3. Ross
4. Ferris
5. P'OC
6. SO'B
7. Wallace
8. Heaslip
9. Murray
10. Sexton
11. Fitzgerald
12. McFadden
13. BO'D
14. Bowe
15. Kearney

16. Cronin
17. McGrath
18. Cullen
19. Jennings
20. Reddan
21. RO'G
22. Earls

Just cause I really want to see it. Also I think it would be capable of some amazing rugby.
 
New Zealand
1.Woodcock
2.Mealamu
3.O. Franks
4.Thorn
5.Williams
6. Kaino
7.McCaw (C)
8.Read
9.Cowan
10.Carter
11.Gear
12.Nonu
13.C.Smith
14.B.Smith
15.Dagg
16.Hore
17.Afoa/O. Franks
18.S.Whitelock
19.Thomson
20.Weepu
21.Bill Williams
22.Muliania

I realise no back up 10 is big risk but its only Tonga so Weepu could cover
 
Isn't it a 23-man squad now with the new reserve forwards rules?

Anyway, my Wales starting line-up would be:

1 G Jenkins
2 M Rees
3 A Jones
4 B Davies
5 A W Jones
6 D Lydiate
7 S Warburton
8 T Faletau
9 T Knoyle
10 S Jones
11 G North
12 J Roberts
13 J Davies
14 L Halfpenny
15 M Stoddart


16 H Bennett
17 P James
18 C Mitchell
19 R Jones
20 J Thomas
21 M Phillips
22 J Hook
23 S Williams
 
what ever the first two teams are like... I just wanna play the thing!! do the whole team set up later...

My selctions would depend of we can select from the 49 provisional Squad recently named or just a 30 man squad that will in all likelyhood be a well informed prediction than anything else. Those squads are named end of August very shortly before or even after the release of this game:)

3.J.Du Plessis
4.Bakkies
5.Matfield
6.Brussouw
7.Alberts
8.Spies
9.Du Preez
10.A.Jacobs...has played 10 before for The Sharks and i hear we can edit positions...i love a running 10, obviously i won't kick when he has ball in hand, just full on attack!
11.JPP
12.JDV
13.Juan De Jongh
14.Ndungane
15.F.Steyn

16.Schalk Brits...if i can slect him/if he is available.
17.Beast
18.Danie Rossouw
19.Jean Deysel
20.Francois Hougaard
21.Lambie
22.Gio Aplon

For Rugby Challenge in Franchise Mode after some signings with The Rebels...seeing that The Sharks are not licensed.

1.Rodzilla
2.Mahonri Schwalger
3.Brian Mujati
4.Courtney Lawes
5.?
6.Hendre Fourie
7.Andy Powell
8.Gareth Delve
9.Richard Kingi
10.?...don't know yet.
11.Telusa Veainu
12.Afusipa Taumoepeau
13.Siale Piutau
14.Alfie Mafi
15.Mark Gerrard

Something like that....Keen for these Games.

My England 23 would go (I understand most people won't agree but they're my views):
1. Sheridan
2. Hartley
3. Cole
4. Lawes
5. Palmer

7. Haskell
8. Easter

19. Botha
20. Robshaw
21. Simpson
22. Wilkinson
23. Monye

Personally, I would love to have seen Billy Twelvetrees or Henry Trinder in the squad as I think centre is our main weakness.

You'd be facing my starting side of-

1. Gethin Jenkins
2. Matthew Rees
3. Adam Jones
4. Bradley Davies
5. Alun Wyn Jones
6. Danny Lydiate
7. Sam Warburton
8. Toby Faletau

9. Tavis Knoyle
10. James Hook
11. Shane Williams
12. Jamie Roberts
13. Jonathan Davies
14. George North
15. Morgan Stoddart

16. Richard Hibbard
17. Paul James
18. Ryan Jones
19. Andy Powell (He'd be great in a video game, as he wouldn't give away silly penalties under your control. And I doubt there'll be a golf buggy mini-game)
20. Richie Rees
21. Stephen Jones
22. L Halfpenny

It's scary, because the only two people who'd pick Knoyle happen to have been the only Welshies to post.
