Star Wars XV: The Millennium Falcons
Prop: Jek Porkins – This bloke isn’t notable at all, but he’s one of the few Star Wars characters who has a sweet prop body.
Hooker: Ewok – Shorter than the two props, valiant warriors, throw spears and stones well
Prop: Jabba the Hut – Not expecting much from him work rate wise but should be solid in a scrum
Lock: Chewbacca – Huge powerful ball carrier and excellent height for jumping in the lineout.
Lock: Mace Windu – Competent with the force, the Jedi bring a bit of balance to a pack.
Blind Side Flanker: Kylo Ren – Fairly young, but has immense talent. Nice to have a Grandad/Grandson partnership in the back-row
Openside Flanker: Darth Maul – A master of the dark arts, he’d be crucial at the breakdown. Also, he was the best thing about the prequels.
Number Eight: Darth Vadar - Dreams of being Brian Lochore.
Half Back: Yoda – A diminutive playmaker who’ll run the show from start to finish.
First Five: Luke Shywalker - The obvious choice for goal kicker after a stellar 100% kicking performance at destroying the death star
Wing: Obi-wan Kenobi – Good pace and the master of the counter-attack
Second Five: Han Solo – May have been killed off. But we’re backing him to put in a BOD like display for our XV.
Centre: Po Dameron – The young upstart of the team. Doesn’t get a lot of game-time in his first appearance but made a big contribution late on.
Wing: Lando Calrissian – A pretty boy, Lando is a flair winger, leaving the dog work to the likes of Han. Dreams of being a centre.
Fullback: Boba Fett - His jetpack helps him under the high ball.
I'm quite triggered a legend like Han is being compared to a dickwad like BOD.
Han never whinged about nearly dying.
I'm more triggered by Po Dameron being there. Centre has to be smart and focused. Po is an idiot. He'd take the wrong man every single time.
Wedge should be there. Dooku also at lock. Mace isn't tall enough.
I’d imagine General Grievous would be hard to stop off the back of the scrum.
Your points about Poe are spot on.
I also have grave concerns about Jabba. His scrummaging would be monstrous but his mobility and skills would be non existent.
Yep. Zero mobility and would be a passenger most of the game. He's a shit character but that Dex (guy who owned the diner) would be a great prop. No problems slipping the bind and a massive bastard.
Grevious would be a beast although that horrible cough makes me wonder about his stamina. Would he need to be recharged at halftime?
