I hope Leigh Halfpenny gets some game time. He was brilliant in the 6 Nations. I almost forgot. I hope Leigh Halfpenny gets some game time. He was brilliant in the 6 Nations.

Looks like there is a little less politics than I accounted for. 27/37 from Wales and Ireland...blimey! Will be interesting to see how they do on tour with such a good squad. I also thought O'Driscoll might get the captaincy as his tenure in the 2005 tour got cut short rather abruptly. Hopefully he heads out again with renewed vigor. I never selected Shanklin, but i am thrilled he is in the squad. O'Driscoll/Shanklin as a combo in the centers would be sick. Indeed.
