Feel like we have been hard done by to not have a single player in there.

Hanro. Play him at 9 if you have to, he should just be on the pitch.

Surely the team of the season is the one which won the final :smt003

It's hardly a full representation of the league

Thing is how many would we swap from our first team squad, I'm struggling to get past one.

Estherhuizen or O'Conor as well for. Moroni, Kelly and Scott have been very consistent and a big improvement on midfield issues of recent years but we lack a strong carrier in the centre just now, Esterhuizen is very good in that regard.

I'd take a full season of Care and Smith over half a season of Lenny and George as well frankly. The eternal Premiership issue of having internationals.

Whilst I think Genge is a fantastic looshead and the least of Tigers worries I think it's only fair on Marler to say that I think he's still the better prop at this time and showed it for Quins this season. Just so consistent in all areas of his game. If available he'd still be my starting LH for England.
