<P style="MARGIN: 0px 0px 11px; FONT: 11px Arial"><B><I>rugby365</I>'s Six
Nations Team of the Tournament:</B></P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0px 0px 11px; FONT: 11px Arial"><B>15 - Lee Byrne
(Wales):<BR></B>After playing three games in the 2006, he had just one run
last year - against France in Paris. However, this powerful runner with a big
kicking game was an established feature and a rock of the Grand Slam winning
Welsh side this year. Strange to think he missed out on World Cup selection
last year.<BR><B>Bubbling under: </B>Geordan Murphy (Ireland)</P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0px 0px 11px; FONT: 11px Arial"><B>14 - Vincent Clerc
(France):<BR></B>He may be small of stature, but is actually very strong and
can power through tackles. Has established himself as France's best
wing.<BR><B>Bubbling under: </B>Paul Sackey (England)</P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0px 0px 11px; FONT: 11px Arial"><B>13 - Tom Shanklin
(Wales):<BR></B>He is a vital cog in the Wales midfield. Deceptively quick and
mixes determined defence with attacking flair. He was one of the stars of
Wales' 2005 Grand Slam triumph and now has Slam dunk number
two.<BR><B>Bubbling under: </B>Brian O'Driscoll (Ireland)</P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0px 0px 11px; FONT: 11px Arial"><B>12 - Gavin Henson
(Wales):<BR></B>They say the cream rises to the top. A run of injuries,
suspension and poor form limited him to just two Test starts since the 2005
Grand Slam campaign, but he did start against South Africa in November and is
now again back to his best - an inside centre with a giant boot, strong
defence and sharp attacking instincts.<BR><B>Bubbling under: </B>Mirco
Bergamasco (Italy)</P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0px 0px 11px; FONT: 11px Arial"><B>11 - Shane Williams
(Wales);<BR></B>He started the tournament with 35 test tries, second only on
the Wales all-time list to Gareth Thomas, who has 39. He scored six more in
the tournament and is now the proud owner of the Welsh record. Another star
from the 2005 Grand Slam season that came back for a second taste of
glory.<BR><B>Bubbling under: </B>Chris Paterson (Scotland)</P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0px 0px 11px; FONT: 11px Arial"><B>10 - James Hook
(Wales):<BR></B>He first burst on to the international scene on the 2006
Argentina tour, before he had even played for the Ospreys. Although he is
equally comfortable at inside centre or flyhalf, it is how he provides Wales
with a different option (read game plans) to Stephen Jones that makes him so
valuable.<BR><B>Bubbling under: </B>Danny Cipriani (England)</P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0px 0px 11px; FONT: 11px Arial"><B>9 - Mike Blair
(Scotland):<BR></B>Having played second fiddle to Chris Cusiter for the
Scotland No.9 shirt when he first broke into the Scotland squad, he is now
arguably one of the first names down on the starting sheet.<BR><B>Bubbling
under: </B>Eoin Reddan (Ireland)</P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0px 0px 11px; FONT: 11px Arial"><B>8 - Sergio Parisse
(Italy):<BR></B>This season has been a far cry from 2002, when he was handed a
baptism of fire in a 10-64 hammering at the hands of New Zealand. However, the
highly-rated No.8 has now firmly established himself as one of Italy's key
players.<BR><B>Bubbling under: </B>Ryan Jones (Wales)</P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0px 0px 11px; FONT: 11px Arial"><B>7 - Martyn Williams
(Wales):<BR></B>Hauled out of retirement by Warren Gatland, this experienced
flank produced some of the most outstanding displays in the tournament and
must be - alongside Richie McCaw - the world's premier openside
flank.<BR><B>Bubbling under: </B>Michael Lipman (England)</P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0px 0px 11px; FONT: 11px Arial"><B>6 - Thierry Dusautoir
(France):<BR></B>It has been a remarkable past year. In July last year he was
not even in the France squad. Now, after a stellar World Cup campaign, he is
one of the first names on the Les Bleus' team-sheet. Dusautoir, who did not
play rugby until the age of 16, has a tremendous workrate and is terrier-like
in the tackle.<BR><B>Bubbling under: </B>Alasdair Strokosch (Scotland)</P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0px 0px 11px; FONT: 11px Arial"><B>5 - Alun-Wyn Jones
(Wales):<BR></B>Jones, who made his Test debut on the Argentina tour in 2006,
played every Test for Wales in 2007 - apart from the two mid-year games in
Australia. He showed again in the Grand Slam effort why he is so highly rated.
Predominantly a lock, Jones can also play at blindside flank.<BR><B>Bubbling
under: </B>Marco Bortolami (Italy)</P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0px 0px 11px; FONT: 11px Arial"><B>4 - Donncha O'Callaghan
(Ireland):<BR></B>When Ireland's tight five misfired at the World Cup,
O'Callaghan was as disappointing as any of them. However, in the Six Nations
he was back to producing his customary high work-rate and willingness to roll
up his sleeves in the trenches.<BR><B>Bubbling under: </B>Ian Gough
(Wales)</P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0px 0px 11px; FONT: 11px Arial"><B>3 - Martin Castrogiovanni
(Italy):<BR></B>Castrogiovanni made his international debut in the 2002
mid-year tour against the All Blacks, and has been ever-present since.
Probably his finest hour came on the 2004 tour against Japan, where he scored
a hat-trick - a rarity for a prop at any level. Castrogiovanni continued his
try-scoring feast in the just completed Six Nations with three more
tries.<BR><B>Bubbling under: </B>Adam Jones (Wales)</P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0px 0px 11px; FONT: 11px Arial"><B>2 - Leonardo Ghiraldini
(Italy):<BR></B>Another member of the front row club that had his origins in
the back row. The talented Ghiraldini is considered the backbone of the Italy
team of the future.<BR><B>Bubbling under: </B>Dimitri Szarzewski (France)</P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0px 0px 11px; FONT: 11px Arial"><B>1 - Andrew Sheridan
(England):<BR></B>Sheridan's wrecking job on a hapless Australian front row -
twice - is what has earned him the tag as the most destructive prop in world
rugby, the pillar of an England pack. Sheridan's best years in an England
shirt are probably still to come.<BR><B>Bubbling under: </B>Andrea Lo Cicero
(Italy)</P><BR>
