    Would like to see the following start against Scotland before I could make up my mind for definite who I'd select if I were picking the RWC squad;
    Tuohy at 4, Henry at 7, Boss at 9, Dave Kearney at 11, Gilroy at 14, and Zebo at 15.

    So far IMO the squad looks like:
    1. Healy if not injured, else McGrath
    2. Best
    3. Ross
    4. POC
    5. Toner
    6. POM
    7. SOB
    8. Heaslip
    9. Murray
    10. Sexton
    11. Zebo
    12. Henshaw
    13. Payne
    14. Bowe
    15. R. Kearney

    16. Cronin
    17. McGrath, else Kilcoyne if Healy is out
    18. Moore
    19. Henderson
    20. Murphy
    21. Reddan
    22. Madigan
    23. Jones

    24. Utility Prop, Bent
    25. 3rd Hooker, Strauss
    26. 4th Lock, Ryan
    27. 5th Back Row, O'Donnell
    28. 3rd Scrumhalf, Marmion
    29. OC/Wing/FB cover Earls
    30. Centre/Wing/FB cover Fitzgerald
    31. OC/Wing cover Trimble

    There's still a lot to be decided, which will make the warm-ups very interesting:
    4th Lock = Ryan or Tuohy
    5th Back Row = Henry or O'Donnell
    3rd Scrumhalf = Marmion or Boss
    Centre cover = Earls or possibly Cave
    Left Wing = Zebo or Fitzgerald, or possibly McFadden or Dave Kearney
    Right Wing cover = Trimble or Gilroy

    Nah, there's no way Zebo can be picked after the fiasco against Wales tomorrow.

    ye pretty much.

    Locking this. A thread can be restarted on Monday after at least some dust has settled on the Wales game.
