It's taken an entire week, but World Rugby have revealed who their best XV from the opening week of the Rugby World Cup is. It seems that the Australians weren't the only ones impressed with Sexton, as he takes his place as the only Irish player in the dream team.
Sexton was on song last week against Canada, showing that he's ready to take Ireland through the tournament. While his selection agrees with the consensus selection, the rest of the team is quite different, and head-scratching.
There are no Japanese heroes mentioned, while the likes of tighthead Samson Lee is picked at loosehead, and Nehe Milner-Skudder picked for his dismantling of Namibia, without mention of his spill against Argentina. There are only two players that match our dream team - with Cory Allen joining Sexton in both teams.
What do you make of it - which dream team is better?
