Captain Matt Hodgson is set to make his return to Super Rugby after being named in the Force’s 25-man travelling squad for its two-match New Zealand tour.

Following on from our looks at the best attacking and defensive sides over recent years, we go back to 2011 to examine which packs were the best at the scrum and lineout.
