Steve James of The Telegraph has compiled his XV of the 6 Nations so far, and five Irish players make the cut, along with eight players from this weekend's opponents, England.
There's a place for Rob Kearney and Tommy Bowe from the back three, along with Robbie Henshaw, Jonathan Sexton, and Peter O'Mahoney.
The team in full, including James' comments on the Irish players:
15. Rob Kearney - Ireland
Must have been good to keep out Wales' Leigh Half-penny and Scotland's Stuart Hogg.
14. Tommy Bowe - Ireland
Better than any other winger in the air, which is so important these days.
13. Jonathan Joseph - England
12. Robbie Henshaw - Ireland
Brilliant defence against France puts him ahead of Alex Dunbar and Jamie Roberts.
11. Liam Williams - Wales
10. Jonathan Sexton - Ireland
Only played one game, but what a game it was. England's George Ford is unfortunate to miss out.
9. Ben Youngs - England
8. Billy Vunipola - England
7. Chris Robshaw - England
6. Peter O'Mahoney - Ireland
England's James Haskell and Wales' Dan Lydiate have had one fine game each.
5. George Kruis - England
4. Yoann Maestri - France
3. Dan Cole - England
2. Dylan Hartley - England
1. Joe Marler - England
So that's the England pack plus Peter O'Mahoney, a terrifying prospect.
