Englands 14 men outfought Argentina, Wales overpowered the Boks, Scotland beat Georgia,?and Irelands win over Australia completed a series of wins over all southern hemisphere teams in 2016.But who gets the vote for selection for the British & Irish Lions team of the week?BACKS15 Stuart HoggAgainst Georgia, he chipped through for Tommy Seymour to score immediately after they fell behind.?He then gathered his own chip forward, with the help of a kind bounce to run in and score before half-time. He was then on hand to finish the move of the game as Ali Price broke from inside his own 22, offloaded to Rory Hughes on halfway before passing inside to Hogg to touch down.14 Jonny MayGiven a chance by Eddie Jones, May has grabbed it without both hands. He was explosive in defence and attack May was sublime. He made a brilliant covering tackle to deny Juan Pablo Estelles a certain try at 14-0. He was a threat on the touchline had a few cross kicks been a little lower but finished well in the left corner.13 Jonathan JosephElliot Dalys red card made for an interesting day for Joseph who had to combine his role at centre with covering on the left wing. it limited how effective Joseph could be when England turned the ball over in attack but his quick hands helped put May in for his try.12 Garry RingroseIt is becoming evident that 21 year-old Ringrose is proving more difficult to dislodge from the Irish team. His substitute appearance against the All Blacks in Dublin showed Joe Schmidt enough to select him against the Wallabies. He didnt disappoint. He scored a try and put in some big hits on?Tevita Kuridrani, Henry Speight and a try-saving tackle on Israel Folau.11 Keith EarlsIt was a huge game from Earls against the Wallabies, making just one tackle fewer than Josh van der Flier in defence and made two clean breaks in attack. It helped that he scored the match-winning try as Ireland fought their way back to win. After not being involved in either game against the All Blacks, it was an impressive performance.10 Dan BiggarBiggar was instrumental in Wales win over the Boks, and his break, kick and regather led to Fef de Klerk being yellow carded for a deliberate knock on. If Wales become a force in next years Six Nations, Biggar will be the one to get the back-line flowing.?9 Conor MurrayMurray has stamped his claim to be one of the top scrum-halves during this November series and was once more on song as he helped Ireland to victory. He once again showed hes much more than a box kicker, and his quick ball to the back-line was always a threat.?FORWARDS1 Gethin JenkinsGiven the captaincy in the absence of Sam Warburton, he led from the front and put in six tackles as part of a good defensive effort. A Lions tour would cap off a superb career for the 36-year-old.2 Ross FordAfter Ryan Wilson, Ford was the biggest forward carrier for Scotland and matched Stuart Hogg by beating five defenders and was part of a pretty solid pack at set piece.?3 Tadhg FurlongHe may be embarrassed by talk of a spot on the Lions tour, but should he continue next year as he finished this year, it will be difficult to overlook the Leinster front-row. He carried well in attack against the Wallabies, has a burst of speed and is ruthless in defence. Hes only started four games to date, all against southern hemisphere opposition, in New Zealand (twice), Australia and South Africa.4 Iain HendersonHenderson had to battle back from injury to get ready for Irelands clash with Australia and put in an incredible performance, including a first-half try. His ball carrying ability, strength at the breakdown and the option he provides at the lineout was crucial.?5 George KruisAfter Joe Launchbury was ruled out through suspension, Kruis did well on his return from injury to the England setup, a reliable go-to man at the lineout and put in 12 tackles in defence.6 Chris RobshawRobshaw had to put in an immense shift with England down to 14 men. His work-rate secured him the man-of-the-match performance. His ball carrying and fierce tackling was crucial as Argentina threatened to fightback.7 Josh Van der FlierAfter being drafted in at the last minute when Sean OBrien was ruled out, he put in a man-of-the-match performance to prove his ability once again. He led the Irish in tackles in defence, beat two Australian defenders in attack and was everywhere.?8 Justin TipuricSomewhat shoe-horned into our team, Tipuric put in a man of the match performance which put him back in contention for a Lions spot. He was everywhere. He blocked a clearance from Elton Jantjies, carried superbly and rounded off his display with a great try, stepping inside Johan Goosen to score, after bursting onto a Faletau pass.Air Max 97 Fake .

But he consented to be interviewed after all, a source told ESPNs Dan Graziano on Friday.Harrison has agreed to meet Aug. 30 at the team facility, per a letter sent by the NFL Players Association to the NFL, which was acquired by ESPN. He has set forth conditions limiting questions to only the segment cited in the Al-Jazeera report in which he was identified. It is unknown whether the league will accept these conditions, and a league official had no immediate comment.Matthews and Peppers interviews are expected to take place at the Packers team facility on Wednesday, in advance of the leagues Aug. 25 deadline, a source told Graziano. The NFLPA remains in support and in an advisory capacity and sent similar letters on behalf of both Matthews and Peppers, the source told Graziano. Those players did not speak after Thursday nights preseason game against Oakland about their willingness to meet with the NFL, but coach Mike McCarthy said: Im just glad the process is moving forward. As already has been stated, as an organization, we support Clay and Julius. Were looking to get this resolved as soon as possible.Harrison was asked after Fridays Eagles-Steelers preseason game why he decided to go ahead with the interview.The bigger outcome wasnt really worth it, he said. I wouldnt be on the team. It would hurt the team. It would hurt my teammates, coaches. So, it was easier just to do the interview, I guess.Harrison added that he made the decision on his own, and not at the behest of the Steelers.The league had warned the players in a letter they would be suspended by Aug. 26 if they did not agree to meet witth investigators.ddddddddddddor those players whose interviews do not take place on or before [Aug. 25], or who fail meaningfully to participate in or otherwise obstruct the interview, their actions will constitute conduct detrimental and they will be suspended, separate and apart from any possible future determination that they violated the steroid policy, NFL vice president of labor policy and league affairs Adolpho Birch wrote. The suspension for each such player will begin on Friday, August 26 and will continue until he has fully participated in an interview with league investigators, after which the Commissioner will determine whether and when the suspension should be lifted.?In a letter dated Aug. 18 responding to Birch on behalf of Harrison, NFLPA associate general counsel Heather M. McPhee wrote:Your most recent letter, distributed to the media before providing to Mr. Harrison via the NFLPA, confirmed Mr. Harrisons understanding that, rather than act with the integrity, respect, and thoughtful diligence that an employer such as the NFL should, the League has instead decided to try to bully and publicly shame a veteran player-employee who has repeatedly asked a simple, eminently reasonable question about his employers investigation:Is the NFL aware of any credible evidence -- other than the recanted remarks by one individual shown by Al-Jazeera -- that indicates that there is any validity to the remarks about Mr. Harrison?Earlier, the NFLPA had issued statements to the league on behalf of the players. But Birch wrote in his letter that the NFL considered them wholly devoid of any detail.The players have an obligation to submit to an interview but also the duty to provide meaningful responses to the questions posed, Birch wrote.And McPhee wrote in response that Harrison has decided that he will act as the more professional entity in this situation and will make himself available ... to answer NFLs investigators questions about the only remarks about him in the Al-Jazeera report.
