After Scotland's two in a row win, you could easily put the whole team in there!

The advantage that the welsh players will have is being used to the playing structure that gatland has employed with the welsh and wasps. My worry about this is that everyone has figured it out. Wales cannot play outside of this structure and once Roberts north etc are targeted, they end up only going sideways. It looks pretty, but can be ineffectual. I hope gatland is rethinking his approach and tactics because the Aussies are great at pulling together a strategy and being effective. the England game prime example

People keep on going on about Welsh players ,give thema break ,they haven't got alot of depth in welsh rugby and all the injuries to key players hasn't helped,if we had a pack like England and had quick ball our backs would break most defences,most of the key players will probably make the lions tour as you can lose form but not class as they say.Look at England yesterday ,came out with confidence and beat the best side in the world,bet no 1 though that would have happend after the Australia game ,but there's a lot of happy english men at the minute i hate to say lol

Cole and Tuilagi must be favourites for their positions for the lions tour. Plus Launchbury, Wood, Robshaw, Farrell, Corbasiero, Youngs (both) really made a statement for their inclusion as well. Brown was brilliant, but I still think he should be playing at 15 to be considered.
Based only on this Autumn alone and mostly inspired by the magnificent forward effort of England yesterday, I'd go for:
1) Healy
2) Youngs
3) Cole
4) Launchbury
5) Ryan
6) Wood
7) Robshaw
8) Morgan
9) Youngs
10) Sexton
11) Gilroy
12) Roberts
13) Tuilagi
14) Cuthbert
15) Halfpenny

@ben7 - A great win yesterday but let's just see how England does in the 6 nations.
The last thing the lions need is a team full of arrogance like the mess that was the England world cup squad. Midget tossing, boat jumping, and the various other activities the English got up to would turn stomachs, and not lead to a good atmosphere.
Already we saw the return of the repellant Ash Splash, and with Tuilagi calling the NZers losers, how quickly the worst of England comes to the surface!

After England's win over an all blacks team struck down with a virus. Only England could get such luck as the get the abs when they were sick lol. And November means nothing its performance in the six nations that matters.

In fairness, though, I heard Sammy Warburton was distracted before the match because in the week leading up to the test he failed his driving test, which he's been trying to pass for ages.
Apparently the trouble started when the instructor asked if thought he were capable of making a U-turn, and Sammy became indignant and replied 'turn, look you?? I'm captain of Wales, boyo! I could make her bloody toes curl!!!...'

Every single Welsh player who they were touting as definite Lions has now got to be in serious doubt of making the plane, let alone making the test XV. Philips, Roberts and Halfpenny descend right down the rankings in their positions. However, North and Warburton, the new young guns who were 'nailed on' for the jersey, have destroyed any reputations they had been building and hushed the taff hype fest. Terrible season to date for them with club and psuedo-country. At this stage we'll be taking perhaps one token taff, but only so we can tell the repertoire of Welshie jokes on the tour bus.
