I would have picked the All Black first XV. Seriously.

Even if Corey Jane has a name that just makes you want to punch him? And he doesn't help it out at all with that haircut! (Still havent forgiven him for getting that try at 81 mins against the Force to win the game when the Canes were 12 points down with 3 mins to go)

 

[The_Brown_Hornet]

Yes, even Corey His haircut used to be worse...

 

[dwats002]

would say Turner looked better than Mitchell and for rookie of the tournament would have to be tied between Dagg and Beale, do not think Cooper looked flash under pressure, plus JOC (James O'Connor) didn't look too bad on attack either, even though his defense is poor

 

[Ruggo]

So no Aussies even though we came second and split in SA despite both games being on the high veld? Come on.

In: Steenkamp, Beale (although it's close), Hougaard.

Out: Woodcock, Mils, Genia.

I'd like to say O'Connor should go but who for? If Dagg had played more games, he'd be there. Maybe Schmoo? Played very well, but a few errors were very, very costly.

Sadly no. Mils most certainly over Beale. I mean that in no disrespect but Mils was the best 15. Pocock, Quade and AAC (Adam Ashley-Cooper) would all get bench positions but all had an opposite better than them this year.

 

[fatprop]

Yeah I thought Mils was fantastic this season, Genia hasn't been great since coming back for injury he has looked sluggish after about 30 minutes

 

[Hartman]

I would have picked the All Black first XV. Seriously.

Well that's ridiculous. Seriously.

Steenkamp way better than woodcock that hasn't dominated anyone since Carl Hayman moved to Europe. the guy scored 2 tries, tackled way more than some backrowers, he does the dirty job that nobody except former props like me see.
Morne Steyn over carter, simple, he didn't missed many goals, Carter was average behind a pack that overall gave him quick ball without pressure.
I don't like Steyn, but in this tournament he did what he could without Du preez.
Half back weepu way better than genia, again thanks to the AB pack as a whole.

But the best where the comments by Peter De villers, he shoud quit the boks and do a comedy show.

 

[The_Brown_Hornet]

Well that's ridiculous. Seriously.

Not necessarily, when you think about the fact that the AB's blanked both of the other teams home and away and only ever looked in trouble in two of the six games. Out of interest, which positions would you clearly pick a non-AB player in? I can think of a couple of candidates: lock (maybe go Matfield), prop (Steenkamp) and halfback (Hougaard). That's about it though.
