Tighthead choices for the Lions tour to Australia
First topic message reminder :
Six nations is done. We are a year on since I last held one of these polls and the long term aim was to compare what we selected a year out, a month out and the final squad.
You can pick one player only as your first choice.
I think I have grabbed most of the names in the hat, though my apologies if anyone you consider worthy has been forgotten, if you ask nicely then I am sure one of our excellent moderators might take the time to be kind enough to offer their much valued assistance.
The players included either showed in the Six Nations squads or have been regularly talked of as prospects on the various threads on here.

But I don't think he is the cornerstone that Adam Jones is, you discredit Adam for his work around the field, he gets through a hell of a lot more than you seem to notice.
In the same way you credit Cole with his foraging for ball, Adam doesn't have to for Wales when we have other men doing it. He is busy elsewhere.
I concede Adam has the luxury of a good pack around him when Coles pack lack grunt, skill and experience in the scrum, as was highly evident a couple of weeks ago.
The lesson learned this six nations is that experience in the big games counts. Jones has a lot to give any team he plays for. More than Cole.
Until that last game Maes I had Cole and Jones pegged at 1, and 2 in the world, I had Healy as a good player who can be suspect at times, and Jenkins unfit...
What would you think of a front row of...
Jones, Hibbard, Cole???
Has Jones or Cole ever played l/head I thought they were both out n out tighties
They are both tightheads. Neither play loosehead.
I think Bluesman mad a typo.
No typo, I mesant to ask if you fancied Cole for a loosehead spot. From my understanding Cole has played loosehead in his younger days, and has the athleticism around the park to play there, a little tweak to his scrummaging and he could be a hugely destructive loosehead too ( no good for England but it's the lions tour not the English tour)
I don't see why Cole couldn't convert succesfully, it would be like combining Jenkins and James!!!
Hmmm sounds a far less obvious idea than putting Tuilagi on the wing.
When we have excellent competition for looseheads why convert our second best tight head?
It makes no sense. We need cole as a tight head either in the three shirt or on the bench raring to go.

Or we pop Healy AND Jenkins on the bench even more raring to go in the latter stages?! Cole will still be around for TH cover, just being utilised on the pitch instead of sat on the bench. I think it'd be an interesting experiment to try, even if it is for just 20 mins early June!

Re: Tighthead choices for the Lions tour to Australia
Why do you think Cole would be a better loosehead than Jenkins, James, Healy, Grant or Sheridan who are all more experienced.
Jenkins and James both had Cole under the thumb in the scrum in his normal tighthead position.
Really can't see it working.

Re: Tighthead choices for the Lions tour to Australia
I think Dan Cole is the best all round option.
Adam Jones is slightly stronger in the scrum but the way games are refereed it makes the scrum a bit of a lottery. I'd rather not put all our eggs in the scrum basket with AJ, as the Aussies are always very clever in the set piece and are rarely dominated despite the weakness. Cole is still a stronger scrummager than any Australian prop, so if we are allowed to dominate we will still be able to.
In every other facet of the game, Cole is far superior to Jones. He will put in a big shift and be highly influential at the breakdown. Jones on the bench to come on and turn the screw if the scrum is going well.

Re: Tighthead choices for the Lions tour to Australia
I think some stats might have to be introduced to these threads later.
Tackle count, passes, turnovers, penalties conceded, and metres covered.
Any other suggestions?

Re: Tighthead choices for the Lions tour to Australia
Adam Jones at the moment.
Cole is class but looked out on his feet throughout the 6N's and gave very little to the team, it'll be interesting to see how he goes against Saints today, and then the following European fixture against Toulon will be the perfect place for him to show his qualities. After that he'll potentially have knock out games against the best in Europe and England to carry on finding his form.
What games will Adam Jones be playing between now and the Lions to show his form?

Adam has the run in for the RP12 and hopefully the play offs.

Re: Tighthead choices for the Lions tour to Australia
Looks like Adam will be favourite.
Thought it would be so much closer.

Re: Tighthead choices for the Lions tour to Australia
Dan Cole has had huge support in posts but the poll says Adam Jones by a landslide.

Someone up above said the Rev ( Murray) didn't do much around the park - 15 tackles in the welsh (IIRC) game - his tackle counts this 6N were huge

Very impressive.
Where do you get these individual player stats from six nations games? I keep seeing them touted around, but it might be worth while looking at the stats for a few of our leading contenders...?

Stats here. http://www.espnscrum.com/six-nations-2013/rugby/series/133756.html?template=results
I belive they are not always terribly reliable. I didn't check before I posted - I will now.

Well anyone else seemed to consider crossing Cole over to Loosehead

Possibly the most resounding vote.
Adam Jones with Cole languishing behind. But who deserves that third place spot? Murray has it with four sole votes to two at the moment.

People can see this for themselves. Stop clogging up the international section, you idiot. Some people have limited Internet and would prefer to be able to find articles of interest. If you really wanted these things to change or be monitored or whatever, well you did it too early. There is no discussion here, so leave it be and give people like me who actually work for a living, a chance to find articles of interest, rather than seeing your guff and having to sift through that to find an article worth commenting on

Re: Tighthead choices for the Lions tour to Australia
I think the choice of Tighthead is interesting debate
You don't, then don't read it.
Particularly the call for who goes alongside Cole and Jones.

It's not about reading it is it. I don't click on them anymore, but there's no way of avoiding the poxy thread when the title usually gets bumped up, ffs. It isn't an interesting debate as no frigger is contributing to it. Are you really that ignorant?
Lastly
"The poll is open until a week before the squad is announced"
Your rules. 6 days to go (less than a week), so no more bumping. Of course, I'm sure you'll change your mind just because you've somehow convinced yourself that people care. If you have to bump any, why not just do the one with all the other links on? You're nothing more than a spammer.

Re: Tighthead choices for the Lions tour to Australia
Dan Cole should be nowhere near the tour,he got pasted by the Aussie scrum a few months ago,#massively over rated player!
Even our non scrummaging prop Gethin wiped the floor with him.
Adam and Euan first choice with Low and Andrews fighting it out mid week.

Pretty sure tomorrow isn't a week before the squad announcement. That's five days.
I would create a thread, but it would get lost in amongst yours, so that's a bit pointless. Great discussion on these now though, after your bumps.
