[QUOTE="Sir Speedy, post: 202354"] Shane Williams > everyone. Uhm... anyway...if we're talking about powerful forwards then we really are screwed... ((Sheridan - has only had one outstanding game. Stevens - hasn't really shown much yet Gethin Jenkins - powerful, but not so effective in the loose. Adam Jones - Not a bad scrummager, just sucks in the loose and does nothing outside of the set-pieces. I don't really watch Scottish or Irish rugby as much, so I wouldn't know about the front rows of them. At least we're spoilt at the lineout, which will need to be strong during the tour: Alun Wyn Jones - tall, aggressive and good lineout jumper. Ian Gough - powerful and a solid defender. POC & DOC - 'nuff said really. Besides Matfield and Bakkies, they're probably the best lock pairing in the World. Kennedy - not seen much of him but he's been immense at London Irish all year in the lineout; their lineout statistics proe this much. Back row is hardly a problem area either with the immense talent from all four countries: Haskell, Rees, Narroway, Martyn, Ryan, Jonathan Thomas, Delve, Quinlan, Leamy, Wallace, Taylor, White.)) in the front row...
