CJ Stander was shunted by SA and deserves his place after a sold performance for Munster who are playing Saracens in the final this weekend.

I fully expect NZ's Super franchises & "Shag's " Test side to give these foreigners a complete skills examination ! ~ we shouldn't need to do an end-of-year tour to the NH thereafter surely

It won't be a whitewash, coz rugby nowadays is only for entertainment, (touch rugby). The game is now for the "viewers", not the spectators...The Lions look good on paper.

Very disappointed with the squad selection. I think that Gat's has made some big mistakes already, but all will be forgive if he comes back with a series win.
