If you want to fit all the best players in the team then I reckon Slater on the wing and Tomkins at FB would be the best option.

The same Ryan Hall who was actually selected in the last world 13?



Oh and how can anybody seriously pick anyone else apart from Slater at full back?

I agree Slater is a better FB than Tomkins. He is looking amazing this year in a much tougher comp. But in a world 13 you would want the best players. Slater would be better than the majority of wingers IMO so why not have the two form players in world rugby both in the team?

There're several excellent wingers in the world so why not play one of them on the wing and one of the best full backs of all time at full back instead (I'm talking about Slater btw)?



I noticed you also had Hock and Moi Moi in your team. Pure gold!

Hock isn't really a debate. He is currently the most devastating backrower in the world.



Moi Moi is a strange one but I wanted to pick the 4 best impact players I could think of. There are too many good props to pick one for the bench so I just went for the one who offers the most impact.

Jamie Lyon would be nowhere near this team.



Nor would moi moi, darius Boyd and Ryan hall based on form this year!

Lyon's been superb this year, if he hadn't have taken himself out of rep footy he'd be playing for nsw.

Agreed sheldon - Lyon has been absolutely sublime for Manly this year. He doesn't have the blockbusting power/pace of an Inglis, but he's a delight to watch, absolutely terrorising defences at times.



If I were a coach I'd get a greatest hits video of Lyon and make sure any young centre in my team sat and watched it many times.

Several players could be in or out of that team but its as good as I can think of off the top of my head.

I wouldn't put Hall in myself, but how has he been in poor form? This statement confuses me.
