Ogbene surely on the wing.

Shame we don't still have Jaime Peters, he would've made a great Hooker.

Muric and Greaves at 4 and 5
H Clarke at 7
Simpson at 12 (allowed?)
Tempted to put Morsy at 2 and Phillips at 10
Can we bring back Titus Bramble into the front row?

Delap at 10 is the craziest thing I've read on here, sorry Keno. Our most destructive runner! Poor Cajuste would never see the ball, let alone those outside him.

1 Al-Hamadi
2 Morsy
3 O'Shea
4 Muric
5 Burgess
6 Tuanzebe
7 Ogbene*
8 Hirst
9 Chaplin
10 Davis
11 Philogene
12 Cajuste
13 Delap
14 Hutchinson
15 Burns

*H Clarke until fully recovered.

Worth giving it a go - if it’s the same official who failed to spot the penalty against Leicester, we might well get away with it.

6ft1 on his Wiki page which is beautiful prop height, but I make him a little taller in the flesh. He isn't big Burge height though and we need steel in our front row. Your pack has a bit of Wales feel about it if you don't mind me saying. I was sorely tempted to put Delap at 8 but I feared he would pick up the ball at every scrum. There's a time and a place Liam! George would choose his moments.

I was very tempted to have Szmodics in 9 or 10 for work rate and Irish qualities but Chappers is undroppable as a 9 really, then Davis has the most to juggle in his head in our system, has the work rate and the wand-like foot - he deserves his chance at 10.

Nobody else think Broady at 10? More of a Marcus Smith than a Jonny Wilkinson

And I just don’t see why we wouldn’t want the line out skills of greaves in the second row

Broady is a great shout. Was on my shortlist but durability and pace are what went against him slightly.

Greaves looks easier to lift but Big Burge and Muric are my lineout destroyers. Both giants, one with a bit of crazy in him and massive hands. I'm backing those boys to go all the way. The only danger is Aro commanding too much of the space to the point that he forgets which line he's meant to be in.

I know that English players playing abroad aren’t eligible for England (which is odd if that’s still the case). But can such players play for the Lions?

Plenty, been waiting all day to this one justice: Generally I like what you've done here but:

Delap is never a ten, he's a hard ball carrier, move him out to Inside Centre
Omari in at ten, great kicker of the ball and brilliant feet
Cajuste moves to openside flanker, great support player
Muric is 6ft 5 need him in second row jumping for the lineouts
Dara O'shea takes Philips place in the front row.

Poll: We recruit two strikers, one has to be Bonne or Wickham, who would you have?

You need to be a horrible bastard to play at prop, at least on the pitch. Not sure Philips has that in him.
