Another damaging blow to Leinster-Munster relations as Rob and Dave Kearney and Rhys Ruddock omit Paul O'Connell from their recently tweeted Superhero XV favouring instead novice lock Mr. Fantastic, a loping beanpole often found wanting in physical confrontations.
He opts for Batman at Outhalf with his nippy little sidekick Robin at scrum half. The duo have worked well in the past and this is a shrewd move. Flash and the Jonah Lomu like Iron Man operate on the wings. Superrman, notwithstanding his bedtime wear which, as has been noted, is a tribute to the absent O'Connell, is given the inside-centre berth. Wolverine is in the tigerish Richie McCaw role at outside flanker.
Myself @kearney_dave and @RhysRuddock have made a superhero XV. What changes would you make?! #superheroXV pic.twitter.com/i5SHSl5ftV
