Your team born XV

[iINDOMINUSxx]

@Tigs Man did a team like this in another thread and i thought this could be a really interesting topic.

So you have to make a XV with players who was only born in your country. For people who are abit confused lets say if you were going to make a England XV you can pick George north as he was born in England even though he plays for Wales. But you can't pick Alex Corbisiero as he might be playing for England but he was born in the USA so you can't add him.

This should be fun. I'll do Scotland

1.) Alasdair Dickinson
2.) Ross Ford
3.) Jon Welsh
4.) Richie Gray
5.) Jonny Gray
6.) Adam Ashe
7.) Kelly Brown
8.) Johnnie Beattie
9.) Brendan McKibbon
10.) Finn Russell
11.) Sean Lamont
12.) Alex Dunbar
13.) Mark Bennett
14.) Dougie Fife
15.) Stuart Hogg

Your go.

None of the players you list were born in England / Wales respectively @TheSaffycen / @j'nuh .... suggest you reread the OP.

Look closer at what j'nuh did.

Ireland stay pretty much the same but lose Heaslip and Murphy at 8. Ditzy in for Payne is an improvement.

Bent
Strauss
Ah You
Touhy
Diack
Stander (fast forward)
Murphy

Tbh after England and Ireland's last games against Wales in Cardiff I would say that was debatable didn't look like he'd ever propped before ...
