think Aplon better than Kirchner . . .

Basta - not a fan, too one dimensional.

Would replace conte banana and keep traille at 12

Kirchner - don't mind him, wouldnt want to start him, prefer delon and i got told kirchner was a weakness when he was in my team

Would replace conte banana and keep traille at 12
-------------
I wouldn't play Contepomi on the wing mate, he's FH & CN material

Prefer that second line up Hon with the French midfield. You really do need a specialist FB though.

I like Kirchner- he does the basics well but is never gonna set the world on fire. I think the Saffers like stability at 10 and 15 which is why he's gettting picked - he wouldn't for NZ, Oz or even England I don't think.

ok cool thanks guys . . .

Thought you was off to Holland or is it delayed.

Stupid ash cloud.

Conte on the wing! You fool!

I would replace conte AND banana AND Traulle to 12

errr is it mee or are you not making much sense - Conte on the wing? lol

Or you could play.

10.Contepomi
11.Habana
12.Traille
13.Banahan
14.Halfpenny
15.Slade

true blogs Contepomi is a good 10 - but dont think people willr ate him. Which is a shame . . .

Banahan would be a 12 - but I would like

12 banahan
13 bastareaud

no messing about with that midfield!

What did we just say about Basteraud?

Sign Reagan King or Rob Horne.

12 banahan
13 bastareaud

Talk about one dimensional..

Agree with Pull that centre partnership would be the worst in the league.

You have to play Traille at 12, and buy a new 13 or play Banahan there.

think i will stick withteh french 12/13 partnership for now as some poeple do rate basts

cheers though guys on here.

oh yeah 12/13 one dimensional - yeah it may be with banas and basts there, but defenders would be papping their pants!

defenders would be papping their pants!

No they wouldn't.

SO you saying defender don't think of Banahan or Bastareaud as a threat, is that why they double, or even three man them when they try coming throughthe line

It's just because they are big and chunky they aren't dangerous players.

lol no it's because they are talented thats what makes them dangerous player . . . don't get me started on re-educating you on the skill set of Banahan - yet again . . .

Banahan is a cracking player! He's pigeon holed into being one dimensional because of hos ridiculous size for a back.

He's got lovely soft hands which he used to great affect in the centres last season putting Bath's dangerous back 3 into gaps

Basteraud isn't talented

couldn't have put it better myself

Hon - a midfield of Banahan and Basteraud would be so easy to play against. Just tackle them - it's not like they'll go around you.

GloucesterBear wrote:Basteraud isn't talented

thats right blogs - you only get capped for the french side if your Poopie . . . ..

Can't see Basteraud in the French Side at the moment

thats made me think about what might be the most bruising XV in your opinion, taking into account ball carrying and tackle count?

1. Soane Tonga'uhia
2. Steve Thompson
3 Martin Castrogiovanni
4. Courtney Lawes
5. Bakkies Botha
6. Willem Alberts
7. Richie McCaw
8. Henry Tuilagi
9. Mike Phillips
10. Johnny Wilkinson
11. Alesena Tuilagi
12. Matt Banahan
13. Mathieu Bastareaud
14. Napolioni Nalag
15. Jack Cuthbert

that team would have a good tackle count for and against!

Dusatoir? Read?

thats because Lieveramont is a nut job, he hasn't included Chabal int he squad even though he's had one of his best seasons - he's not a good manager and will cause France to self destruct int eh WC tournament . . .

actually Croft should be in there as well

"9. Burgeess - one of the best 9's in the world. Sometimes prefer him to Genia for the Wallabies - does the basics better. Not as exciting though."

I think the complete opposite to that. Burgess has slipped massivley over the season and will be
lucky to make the Aus squad.

His basics are the issue....they're not great. He's a real threat around the fringes usually though. Genia has fantastic basics and has really added a running threat over the last year or so.

Best scrum half I've seen this year is Sarel Pretorious with Genia not far behind but I'd still take a firing Parra or FdP above them.

Kirchener can be pretty awful, rate Delon a fair bit higher.

Them forwards looked pretty good until you got to Phillips.

Basteraud, Banahan, Cuthbert do you have a mental age of 5?

Basteraud wouldn't of been picked anyway, even if Lieveramont was coach. Mermoz, Marty, Jauzion, Rougerie, Estebanez and Mazars are all better.

Im out to watch some cricket.

Weather holding back for the moment.

Enjoy some slow dealing, get rid of fat Bast banafan.

Anybody watching the U20s?

Yeahhh, any thoughts about my offer mate?

Don't have Bendy mate lol


How good are our U20s!

Very good and much better than Ireland, NZ are a different story tho.

We is he in your squad then lol? I'll have a rethink!

I know right, Ford is brilliant. I saw them in February drub Italy, 83-3 or seomthing!

Got a simple game plan though shift it up the middle come back pulling the irish back across and then shifting it wide.

Andy Short does look dynamite!

Swap would've been Bendy for Rodriguez?

Elliot Daly, what a player though. Played with him!

League table

Looking good, god knows who'll make the top four!

Place your bets now...

Do we play all times once or twice, im suspecting twice?

A whole day of Super Rugby on Sky Sports tomorrow from 8.30 till about 6.00 in the evening, five matches being shown.

Anybody going to watch any of them or all of them, final bits of the season starting to unravel so it's very exciting.

blogs your an absolute cretin.
Lievramont is coach - basts should have been picked. and if you read my post about a bruising XV you will see why I include Cuthbert, basts and Banahan

you blogs are a complete and utter nobber

I do like Basteraud but I don't think he should be in the French WC squad. Marty & Rougerie would be first choice 13's, Bast is off their standard imo.

Anybody watched Crusaders v Blues and Highlanders v Waratahs this morning?

Beale looking excellent and that Tom Carter the Waratahs centre looks mighty impressive.

Carter's kick to Guildford against the Blues, was excellent play. One more week after today tension and excitement building up.

deadly deadly quiet . . . .

I'm here hon!! Suffering after getting in from rugby dinner at 7am mind!!

good lad mate good lad!

That's the problem with drinking on anti-inflammatories!!
