Squad Selections

[Sir Speedy]

Anyone who says O'Gara after Saturday's game is going on my list...
Also, Cyril, Blair needs to start at nine for the Lions. This has been clear for years; you're just too stupid t'uv not seen it!

 

[cyRil]

Well I'd start O'Gara at 9, personally.

Well this has to be a first, but I agree with you.

BOD showed some class back with Ireland!

 

[the_boot]

1-Sheridan , overated but best available
2-Ford/Hartleys obviously a man for the next tour, very talented
3-Jenkins, is he any good at tight head? no one else stands out tbh
4-Kennedy, did well in NZ
5-O'Connell, he was **** on the last tour but should turn that around..
6-Strokosch, great ball carrier, hard worker
7-Reece, great at the breakdown, vital to combat Burger
8-Haskell, hes strong enough and quick enough to be at 8
9-Mike Blair, great skill and pace
10-Hook, a bit lightweight but he has the all round game to cement his place at pivot
11-Williams, obv..
12-Henson, im a bit sceptical but hes clearly the best inside centre at the moment available
13-Roberts, seems like a gamebreaker, lack of a kicking game doesnt matter
14-Sean Lamont, great broken field runner, we need to be more attacking minded than last time
15-Kearney,just adges Byrne because he seems a better runne

 

[dullonien]

01 Gethin Jenkins (Sheridan's overrrated)
02 Hartley / Ford
03 Euan Murray
04 Second row spots are up for the taking, no stand out's at present.
05 See above
06 Strokosch, Jonathan Thomas? (not sure on the 6 jersey, there's more in the running)
07 Martyn Williams
08 Ryan Jones / Andy Powell (we'll see is Powell can kick on from here)

09 Blair
10 Stephen Jones (only 10 showing anything at present)
11 Shane Williams (though he's gotta shape up)
12 Gavin Henson (If he can stay fit)
13 Jamie Roberts (no, BOD's not even close, and yes he does have a kicking game)
14 Again, whoever wants it just needs to show some consistency.
15 Lee Burne (waaay out in front)

Probably a bit biassed to Wales, especially in the backs, but there's not many pushing. 6N will decide a number of positions.

 

[MunsterMan]

1.Jenkins/Jaccobsen
2.Ford
3.Murray
4.Wyn Jones
5.O'Connell
6.Croft
7.Wallace
8.Powell
9.Blair
10.Jones
11.Williams
12.Henson
13.Fitzgerald

15.Byrne

Loosely based on AI form so far.

08 Ryan Jones / Andy Powell (we'll see is Powell can kick on from here)[/b]

Well his up and under on the weekend was pretty good!

Byrne is cemented into the 15 jersey, and Stephen Jones is looking like the front-runner for 10.

 

[Incredible Schalk]

1-Jenkins, although he had a tough game at the weekend he has been solid this year
2-Ford, dodgy lineout thrower but he has more experience than Hartley and offers alot in the loose
3-Murray, ask the Beast and MacIntosh why
4-Alun Wyn Jones- has calmed down this year and offers alot around the park
5-Hines, if he keeps a cool head he can be a great player. Skillful and part of a good lineout
6-Strokosch, very good carrier,good skills, needs more games and experience still though so maybe someone like Heaslip
7-Williams, great skills, quick mind and quick to the breakdown. Could do with bulking up a little but still he should be in the side
8-Powell, beast B)
9-Mike Blair, very consistent and is the worlds form scrum half.
10-Well a month ago i would have said Cipriani but his passing and defense is so poor he wouldnt even be in my top 5. So Jones for me.
11-Williams, hope he gets a bit of space, shoe in unless he gets injured.
12-Henson, he needs a decent run of games but no one else standsout really.
13-O'Driscoll, he looks better this season, has a point to prove
14-Rory Lamont, great at spinning out of the tackle and is a danger every time he gets the ball.
15-Byrne, hes moved ahead of Kearney imo. Brilliant under the high ball,huge boot and has a good step.

Did you watch the All Blacks game? he was absoloutely awful. He wasnt particularily good on saturday either, except the cross kick and the drop goal.

I agree with you about ROG's lack of from but how can you explain not picking O'Connell?

I agree with the first part of this, but it took a good 5mins untill I could understand what you were on about. Punctuation, it kinda helps! A couple of full stops, Capitals at the beggining of sentances will do wonders:

I'm going to move on from the issue of 10 for the moment. What I wanna know is where people are gettin off picking Gethin Jenkins at tight head, who's favourite to start at loose. Euan Murray is on fire at tight, no brainer tore beast apart and Jamie Macintosh. Ooh the six nations is going to be epic, watch out for king ROG curling up in a ball after he bottles it again.[/b]

Fixed . (being a bit picky there, but at least put in the basics.)
