World XV vx Springboks

[skeepe]

The World XV squad to face South Africa has been named, I've highlighted both Australian and New Zealand representatives:

Backs:

Clinton Schifcofske (Australia), Thinus Delport (South Africa), Thomas Castaignede (France), Andy Farrell (England), Justin Marshall (New Zealand), Drew Mitchell (Australia), Ryan Cross (Australia), Gareth Cooper (Wales), Gomez Cora (Argentina), Matt Perry (England),

Forwards:

Nic Henderson (Australia), Dave Hewitt (Scotland), Cobus Visagie (South Africa), Vernet Basualdo (Argentina), Fabio Ongaro (Italy), Simon Shaw (England), Alister Campbell (Australia), Michael Owen (Wales), David Croft (Australia), Jonny O'Connor (Ireland), Takuro Miuchi (Japan), Lawrence Dallaglio (England)

Should be an entertaining game, and proves Australia is still at the top of world rugby, with 6 representatives

It doenst look like a very strong W15. If SA cant beat it by 40 then they have some serious issues.

 

[NK Arsenal]

so much for a "world XI".
schifcofske and cross have never played a proffessional game of union in their lives!

Haha league converts starting without any super 14 or wallaby experience, oh well one of the joys of having Bob as coach.
