End of argument.
 
Mine would be;

1-Gethin Jenkins (more as a whole than individuals)
2-Matthew Rees
3-Adam Jones
4-Victor Matfield (not my strong point, obvious choices?)
5-Brad Thorne
6-Rocky Elsom
7-Richie McCaw
8-Keiron Read

9-Ben Youngs (current form I've been impressed)
10-Quade Cooper (didn't put the obvious one as I thought he was a bit 'off' recently)
11-Shane William (still going well into his 30's, hope he's fit soon)
12-Sonny Bill Williams
13-Jamie Roberts
14-Tommy Bowe (underated, wanted to put North in but maybe too early)
15-Kurtley Beale
 
1: Tonga Hu'ia
2: Mealamu

15: Poitrenaud
 
Matthew Rees as the best hooker even in the UK is Hilarius. not to mind Ireland. he's above average at best
 
He's not even in an All Black XV, especially not over Hosea Gear. Rene Ranger should remain in the centres, he's not quick enough to be a devestating winger.

I'm quite sure Ranger is one of the fastest players in NZ, he's a much better wing in my opinion than NZ.

But, he's probably a worse country.

He's no where near as fast as the really quick wingers in New Zealand. He's a very good line breaer, but he's consistantly been caught from behind during the last NPC. I'd put him maybe on par with Ben Smith in terms of speed. I really rate Ranger, he's just not a good option on the wing. Centre is where he belongs, despite the sorrounding competition.

It's not my World XV, it's just a team i'd like to see play...
 
gethin jenkins is a far better rugby player than sheridan
sheridan is a lump a massive man
while gethink jenkins is a fantastic rugby player
he is like an extra flanker with added propness
 
tipical welsh fan...

No just realise that Gethin Jenkins is the best loosehead in the world, even the critics / pundits say so. Only thing good going for Wales at the mo.
