Have to agree to disagree. Furlong is head and shoulders the best tighthead prop available; likewise Sexton is the best fly half.
Actually you're probably right about Furlong. I think Nel is the only one who could compete, but with his injuries he's presumably out of the running. Other than that the next best option is...ummm...I don't know.
Sexton v Farrell is one that will run and run. For me Farrell has been at the top of his game at the very highest level for club and country for 2 years now. Sexton, whilst obviously a gem of a player, needs a consistent run, although his changes go up if we pick Murray at scrum half.
Saturday's game is big for a lot of these decisions methinks.
