Loosehead prop: Strong Belwas Take a look at him. Also once wiped his arse with the sigil of a defeated opponent - capable of front row banter Hooker: Shea Tighthead prop: Biter A Julian White-esque purveyor of the dark arts up front. Lock: Gregor Clegane Aptly colossal enforcer. Lock: Hodor Admittedly requires some touchline intervention in order to understand lineout calls. Blindside: Sandor Clegane Lewis Moody. Openside: Bronn Quick and resourceful and like any good #7, knows that it's not about what the rules are, it's what you can get away with. Number 8: Jaime Lannister He's got a brilliant hand-off Scrum Half: Petyr Baelish Positioned such that the men in front do most of his dirty work, and every play pretty much starts off with what he did to wrong-foot the defence. Fly Half: Davos Seaworth Experience and guile. Knows how to get his best players involved in the game. Left wing: Khal Drogo Bulldozer in the Lomu mould. Inside Centre: Oberyn Martell Possesses the speed and skills to go alone but knows when to move it along to the men outside him. Best defender in the backline. Outside Centre: Jon Snow All-around skills with youth on his side. Deliberately kept out of the tactical positions. Right Wing: Loras Tyrell Gets away with a lack of size through showboaty flair and skill. Full Back: Tywin Lannister Known for playing for territory rather than diving straight into the fray. Gets involved when the team desperately requires it.
Gregor as the new Lomu. He's 8 feet of muscle ffs. And I thought you hadn't read the books. How do you know about the deleted character in there? Ned for loosehead prop. Get Jaime in the backs somewhere. Greatjon Umber at lock or number eight.
I've got the books and have read most of the bits that are already covered, I just prefer to let the show stay ahead.
1. Hodor -- raw power up front; no need to think. 2. Tyrion Lannister -- crafty and smart, and used to moving in between people's legs. 3. Ramsay Snow -- not the biggest, but probably the most evil. 4. Brienne of Tarth -- height and strength. 5. Drogon -- as if a Dragon would ever lose a line-out; may give away penalties. 6. Ned Stark -- honourable and willing to run through walls for the team; the workhorse. 7. Stannis Baratheon -- channelling black magic down the blindside; perfect. 8. The Mountain -- huge; will run over everyone and everything when given some space. 9. Tywin Lannister -- the field marshal of the team; plans and executes every play with military precision. 10. Ygritte -- quicker than Tywin, fiestier, has afterburners when in space, and is a sharpshooter in front of goal. 11. Syrio Forel -- tiptoeing down the touchline, dancing his way out of tackles. 12. Jamie Lannister -- the most 'talented' of them all, but never quite delivered enough to hold down the #10. Can defend. 13. Salladhor Saan -- used to working outside of others (and the rules); has with all the skills in the book, but you feel you can never quite trust him in a more tactical position. 14. Jaqen H'ghar -- being able to disappear is a very useful skill out on the wing. 15. Oberyn Martell -- the crafty one at the back; explosive in attack, solid in defense; backs himself one-on-one against anyone and gets involved exactly when required.
Nah, Strong Belwas is the deleted character, which is a shame tbh. He's a gun and a fantastic choice for the front row.
I'd go with: 1. Hodor 2. Varys 3. Robert Baratheon (C) 4. Gregor Clegane 5. Mag the Mighty, King of the Giants 6. Sandor Clegane 7. Davos Seaworth 8. Khal Drogo 9. Tyrion Lannister 10. Petyr Baelish 11. Jaqen H'ghar 12. Jamie Lannister 13. Stannis Baratheon 14. Daario Naharis 15. Oberyn Martell
