2015 Six Nations Rugby All-Star Tournament Team

As a follow-up to my FIFA World Cup Team, here are my selections for the recently completed RBS 6-Nations Rugby Tournament. In my selections I try to spread the love and select from as many teams as possible. In this case only Italy missed out and they has two contenders in Luke McLean and Sergio Parisse their stalwart caption. Many positions were very difficult to choose an outright leader; for example fullback, where Scotland's Stuart Hogg eventually emerged as winner, as all six fullbacks were exceptional. The Player of the Tournament for me was Ireland's amazing captain Paul O'Connell. The last day of play produced some of the craziest and scintillating results ever, it was mesmerizing. So here they are... again no apologies... it's my team.


My 2014 FIFA World Cup All-Star Team

I meant to put this up after the World Cup was finished, but things just got in the way. So here is my personal 2014 FIFA World Cup All-Star Tournament Team. No apologies for who I selected, after all it is MY team. I don't ever select players I personally dislike, so Luis Suarez (serial biter) and Arjen Robben (serial whiner) aren't even considered. Enjoy.
