Wales' winning start [three from three] now sees six of their squad in Monye's form team with three Scots and two from Andy Farrell's Ireland panel.
Monye agrees with Wales centre Scott Williams and House of Rugby's Fergus McFadden in going for Leinster and Ireland's Robbie Henshaw for the 12 jersey. Alongside the 27-year-old is Exeter and England star Henry Slade.
The only other Ireland player that makes the cut is scrumhalf Jamison Gibson-Park, who gets the nod beside Scotland's Finn Russell in the half-back pairing.
