I just got angry thinking about the paywall that will pop up as I hit the link.

Given the timing they are obviously favouring the peasants of the west for this tour.

The 10 role will be interesting with plenty of (at least in the media) behind-the-scenes goings on. Finn Russell? Bad blood between Finn and recently-appointed assistant J. Sexton with Sexton labelling Russell too flash. Product of head coach's loins O. Farrell's head injury for Racing -v- Lyon might or might not further muddy the waters. He has pretty much stunk the place out for Racing this season but has been touted for his experience. Presumably Finn Smith is nailed on, or should be. Marcus Smith who can also cover 15 though not very well? Prendergast? He who defines speed bump in defence? You'd have to be joking.

Two Aussies touring with the Lions. Makes perfect sense.

Yep same amount of aussies than welsh and more kiwis and saffas! Didn’t think Hansen was going to make it, well done to him

Surely they have better options than Elliot Daly as well.
