Team of the Year

Rugby Heaven picks its best squad of 22 players from 2011. Not surprisingly, the world champions dominate selections.

"15. Israel Dagg (New Zealand). Displaced Mils Muliaina as New Zealand's - and the world's - best fullback. An attacking genius with a booming boot, Dagg's World Cup form was enough to displace Kurtley Beale.

"...7. Richie McCaw (New Zealand). Openside flanker may be the most competitive position in world rugby. Injury hampered McCaw and he was edged by David Pocock of Australia in straight No.7 play, but throw in leadership and big-match performances and the Kiwi captain gets the nod."
