England, France, New Zealand and Wales.

It was just a joke. Don't worry. I'm referring to when he grabbed Carragher's leg live on air when he heard Brendan Rodgers got the tin tack from Liverpool.

Careful El -Sid ...youre asking for a new front  door

But the winner should be Ellie Kildunne and the team should be the England Rugby team. They are far superior than anyone else and play at a skill set similar to the men... unlike the women's football team. 

Rory's achievement would be better if he was actually more dominant in the majors, rather than just the odd flash of brilliance.
