Brian O'Driscoll mocks Warren Gatlands 'geographical' call-ups
British and Irish LionsSaturday, 17 June 2017 at 16:18
Eddie Jones was the first to criticise Warren Gatland for calling up four Welshman, stating it’s only a 13-hour trip from Argentina, where England are, to New Zealand. Gatland has since fired back.
Wales’ Cory Hill, Kristian Dacey, Gareth Davies and Tomas Francis joined the squad rather than look at calling up the likes of Joe Launchbury, Simon Zebo or even Cian Healy.
The latest person to have a little joke at the Lions head coach's expense is Brian O'Driscoll, suggesting that Andy Nicol, who is now 46, could be the next man called into the squad.
The former Scotland captains response is BRILLIANT!

- Jordie Barrett over Damian de Allende is far from being correct. The hype around Dupont is also overreaching, he's probably 4th in the world and has been since the 2023 WC. He also avoids certain matchups which is strange. The rest of the list is pretty good apart from minor subjective biases.JasonMarlow16-09-2026
