This is best left until after 6N.

Also you should define your parameters. Current test form? Then no one should pick FdP or Hayman. Etc, etc.

There was a thread posted about this at the end of 2010 i think with plenty of discussion... i think it's best left until after the 6N, at least halfway through.

With Autumn internationals just over, try nations not that long past and Heiniken cup half way done, perfect time to pick a world 15. And because Hayman isn't playing test match rugby doesn't mean he cant be included in a world 15 as he is easily still one of the best about. And you cant rule FDP out just because he's injured.

To be fair the current NZ team would rape that team you have just picked LOL.

to be fair, Keewees say that about every team, ever. Still doesn't make it true.

So you've picked your team and it's running out with six on the bench because your first choice halfback is at home watching it on telly. Madness!

Disagree - the French didn't pick their best players so have can we assess them? Be assured they will be picking their best players for 6N. As for Heineken Cup form - if the premise of your thread was that form below the test level was valid then you should have given that as one of the determinants, but some of us who appreciate the difference between test level and lower levels may not care to participate.

Most of us who use the forum are acquainted with 3N and the EOYT tests. Let's see the Europeans play in their most important tournament (except for the RWC) first.

Besides, as spikhaza mentioned, this thread was done recently.
