basically the whole welsh team goes except for the fly half. it's right that they've got the most players, but I cant really think of any welsh players who were unlucky not to go.

Has there ever been a player more unlucky than robshaw to miss out on selection for a lions tour ?

I never win these things! Woo

I was actually going to put Matt Stevens as the surprise inclusion as i was certain he would go due to playing both sides of the scrum and being a bit better the last few months

about that, but congrats for being first past the post all the same
