Don't be so sure; France have a centre called "Brian Liebenberg" & a prop called "Pieter de Villiers".

Three guesses where they hail from!

I really think this could be Ireland's year - it's just a matter of stringing together consistent performances.

My predicted final standings are:

Ireland
England
France
Wales
Italy
Scotland

Interesting pick in their loose forwards for the first game; dropped Johnny O'Connor. Denis Leamy comes in. Bum call in my opinion.

I really rate O'Connor, there was talk of him qualifying for us on residence (he plays for Wasps), but now Ireland have slapped a cap on him.

Mind you, it is Italy so it won't matter an ar$e.

D'Arcy back in the centre with O'Driscoll too, my picks for The Lions' centres, so be interesting to see how they go.

Am I right in thinking Ireland host both France and England this time?

If so then unless they're favourites their odds are very good.
