According to Fox Sports, Sekope Kepu was "The least penalised prop at scrum time during the 2015 regular season, Kepu gave away just three scrum penalties while forcing the most by a tight head (27). He made the most offloads (10) of any prop, had the equal second most tackle busts with 10 and...

Who are people picking at 12? Does anyone fancy Kerevi, or is it between Giteau and To'omua (and possibly Beale). I like the Kerevi styled inside centre, similar to Nonu, but unlike the AB's, we don't have a ballplayer at fullback (Smith or Dagg) to share the playmaking duties.

I think that Jones can feel extremely hard done by to not be picked over Mumm, Dennis, Simmons, Arnold and especially Horwill! He would be my starting lock with Skelton. JOC (James O'Connor) has not played well this year, but form is only temporary, and he is a world class 12, 14 and 15. I feel like footballing...

He would walk straight in to all those teams. For his own standards, I can agree with your statement that he wasn't very good, but class is permanent and he is a world class rugby player. But that is just my opinion, and you are entitled to your own.

Everyone loves to hate on SBW, but he's a class player. He led the competition for offloads despite missing plenty of games. Which teams would you not have him in expect the All Blacks?

Not the 4 best, but 4 of the best. Fekitoa and SBW would rank in the top 10 centres in the world, and would walk into any international team bar NZ. I agree that SBW wasn't at his best this year, as he missed a lot of footy, but there were still glimpses to suggest how good he can be when he is...

They are 4 of the best centres in the world, however it is still an easy choice in my opinion. Nonu has been outstanding this season for the Hurricanes (which is a surprise), and Conrad Smith is as safe as they come. Fekitoa and SBW's time will come (if SBW stays around).

I think that you're right Benaud, and that they will go with Phibbs and To'omua. However I think that Giteau should be given an early crack, as he is used to European rugby, and his goalkicking is a major asset. Whilst To'omua has always performed well for the Wallabies, he has not played a lot of...

That's a good point on Rob Horne, always been a big fan but I feel he lacks a bit of magic. However, his defence could be very useful come the world cup, and if we were to play to play Giteau at 12, then Horne should probably start as he defends well there. If To'omua were to start at 12, then...

Hi guys, what do you think of my starting XV? 1. Slipper 2. Moore (C) 3. Kepu 4. Skelton 5. Simmons 6. Fardy 7. Pocock (VC) 8. Higginbotham 9. Genia 10. Foley 11. AAC (Adam Ashley-Cooper) 12. Giteau 13. Kuridrani 14. Speight 15. Folau Please note Jones would have been a straight swap for Simmons if in the squad...
