AAC is on better form than the other two atm,
Makes sense to me
The only ones I'd question would be Henson (-->Jamie Roberts or James Hook) and Mike Blair (but I can't think of another Scottish back to have it, maybe Chris Cussiter? or Max Evans?)
Mike Blair??? Castro with an 8's star? Sexton?
My take if anyone is interested

AAC
EDIT: Just for justification, AAC is more of a running player (BOD star) than big hitter (Umaga). I also tried to consider attributes such as strength and versatility in the positions (such as with Giteau's star)
