May 27, 2009 Posted by Graham Jenkins on 05/27/2009 Has there been a better Baa-baas line-up? England stalwart Martin Corry will lead a star-studded Barbarians team against England at Twickenham on Saturday which must surely rank as one of the strongest sides the world-famous touring team have put out - if not the best. Barbarians: Ben Blair (Cardiff Blues & New Zealand), Doug Howlett (Munster & New Zealand), Josh Lewsey (London Wasps & England), Gordon D'Arcy (Leinster & Ireland), Iain Balshaw (Gloucester Rugby & England), Glen Jackson (Saracens), Justin Marshall (Saracens & New Zealand), Clarke Dermody (London Irish & New Zealand), Schalk Brits (Stormers & South Africa), Greg Somerville (Gloucester Rugby & New Zealand), Martin Corry (Leicester Tigers & England, capt), Chris Jack (Saracens & New Zealand), Jerry Collins (Toulon & New Zealand), Serge Betsen (London Wasps & France), Rocky Elsom (Leinster & Australia) Replacements: Sebastien Bruno (Sale Sharks & France), B J Botha (Ulster & South Africa), Paul Tito (Cardiff Blues), Phil Waugh (Waratahs & Australia), Chris Whitaker (Leinster & Australia), Mike Catt (London Irish & England), Ratu Nasiganiyavi (Waratahs) Would surely give the Barbarians side that took on Australia last year - and widely regarded as the most formidable selection in the Baa-Baas' history - a great game? Barbarians: Percy Montgomery; Joe Rokocoko, Rico Gear, Jean de Villiers, Bryan Habana; Francois Steyn, Fourie du Preez; Federico Pucciariello, John Smit, Cencus Johnson, Bakkies Botha, Johann Muller, Jerry Collins, Schalk Burger, Richie McCaw Replacements: Mark Regan, Rodney Blake, Chris Jack, Nick Koster, George Gregan, Ollie Smith, Shane Williams Who do you think would win?
