We all make mistakes, but this cock-up from the New Zealand Herald was particularly amusing, especially since the Lions official Twitter account responded directly.

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.
