Blistering Barnacles! You missed out Tin Tin’s buddy, Captain Haddock. Excellent at recovering from a knocks to the head (normally sees stars once an episode), and a well built chap. Downsides are his propensity to pull out the fisty cuffs and questions about his fitness from all that pipe smoking. Could maybe use him as a back-up to one of the ZZ-Tops in the centres.

as a member of the selection committe for this team, i can only re-itterate my collegues comments and selection. Chuck Norris failed to make the grade as he was considered too much of a lone wolf for a starting berth and we wanted a team ethos for initial stability. hence darwins beliefs on slectin of the fittest disagreed with gods divine will!

chuck would come on second half at 12 for one of the tops!

I know he wouldn’t be much use but I would really like to see Monty Panesar on a rugby pitch. His high-knee, galloping running style would be hard to stop although his abject inability to catch could prove a stumbling point – although it doesn’t appear to have held back Sean Lamont.

Chuck Norris was a massive oversight on my part. There can be no apology. The Devil was contemplated but as with Darwin, team spirit could be severely affected, particularly given the half-backs.

Surely given that Osama is between 6’4 and 6’6 he should slide into the second row alongside Kelly.
How about the devil in there at 6. Although that wouldn’t work out if Norris gets the nod at 15.
Chuck Norris sold his soul to the Devil in return for his good looks and martial arts ability, he then roundhouse kicked the devil in the face and took his soul back

Kemlo Longstaff once failed to pick Chuck Norris in his Bearded 15. He was found dead shortly afterwards from roundhouse-kick related injuries.

Didnt Dumbledore get ‘subbed’ between the first two movies? Surely this irregularity in who Dumbledore actually is would have been picked up the the FRFU (Fantasy RFU) upon player registration. I think Chuck Norris would slot in easily into fullback – his unnatural ability to defend himself (and therefore, his tryline), his Montgomery like un-flappable nature and his mecurial right roundhouse would ensure territorial dominance from kick returns inside his 22m.

Its a strong team, but for all the magic on offer I fear there is a lack of aggression – I propose Chuck Norris at inside centre and how can you overlook the ultimate bearded monster Sebastian Seabass Chabal who must at least feature as an impact sub surely?!
