3. Ronan Kelleher (Ireland)
Position: Hooker
Age: 23
Club: Leinster
Caps: 9
The Leinster hooker has been highly spoken of as a coming talent for a few seasons now, and at 23 with nine caps under his belt, his club form looks to have assured his place as the permanent Ireland hooker. With Ken Owens form inconsistent, there is a real opportunity for him to get into the Lions squad.
DID YOU KNOW? Kelleher was initially an outside-back and then a back-row for much of his underage years
