    How about the rest of you post your XV? :p

    Reason I picked Roberts ahead of Nonu was because Nonu plays for the ABs and hasn't really had to pull off any crazy stuff to win games for them. You could easily have replaced him with SBW and we would still have won by good margins. Roberts on the other hand has played a huge part in putting Wales where they are.

    Genia vs. Weepu to be decided in this next match IMO. Both have been excellent so far.

    It's fair that they're both in contention for this, but I reckon Genia is the better player by a fair distance.

    completely different players

    weepu is far more versatile and safer imo, genia is more lethal though

    Kicking is for girls. And if you had an awesome backline, e.g. the team in this thread, or the Aussie backline, or even the Reds backline, you wouldn't want to kick away much ball from 9 anyway.

    Piri can kick goals, something no one in the Australian team can do.

    Bring back Giteau.

    But Giteau can't kick goals either...
