My best 11 - Andy Morris, Lifestyle Services Group
Lifestyle Services Group business development director, and former Sale Sharks flanker, Andy Morris selects his Best XI for an insurance start-up. Morris has relied on his colleagues, a range of insurance industry heavy hitters and an England international rugby hero.
1. Roger Powell (The Warranty Group) (GK)
Roger, managing director of The Warranty Group, is an extremely safe pair of hands, with experience and an ability to read the game
2. Colin Graham (LSG) (LB)
Divisional director Colin is used to defending a solid position and can handle anything left field
3. Simon Brimicombe (Allianz) (RB)
Allianz director Simon can and will tackle anything put in front of him
4. John Brockholes (LSG) (CM)
John has been brought in from the youth development scheme and should prove to be a valuable asset to the first team
5. Mike Caiden (Allianz) (CB)
Mike, head of sales for Allianz's corporate partners unit, has a solid understanding of the game and nothing gets past him
6. Chris Harrison (LSG) (CB)
The new chief executive signed this spring from Ace. Chris is a tenacious ball winner who can defend and attack. Our club captain
7. Jason Robinson (RM)
OK, Jason played the wrong sports - rugby league and union - but his speed would cause problems in any defence
8. Tracey Rogers (LSG) (CM)
Tracey is our playmaker and business development supremo. Her style and panache is a great advantage for every big game
9. Anthony Borgman (LSG) (ST)
Anthony, who will work in tandem with Tracey, is goal focused and a threat to any competitors' defence
10. John O'Roarke (LV) (ST)
LV GI boss John is professional, effective and respectable, and will convert chances into goals
11. John Harrison (LSG) (LM)
John is our most capped international player, with the ability to rapidly venture into competitor territories
