How the British and Irish Lions XV would look based on statistics

SECOND-ROW:

4. Maro Itoje (England), 5. Tadhg Beirne (Ireland)

Beirne continued his outstanding tournament, which has seen him score two tries, with another two turnovers against Scotland – taking his total to seven. Itoje is the next highest player with four.


BACK-ROW:

6. Josh Navidi (Wales). Justin Tipuric (Wales), 8. CJ Stander (Ireland)

Wales players have dominated the tackles statistics throughout the competition but Tipuric has opened up his lead at the top, taking his total to 74 after making 19 tackles against Italy. Navidi, who ranks second with 60 hits, has also made two try assists and won three turnovers. Meanwhile, with five turnovers and 64 carries for 311 metres made during the Six Nations, despite his retirement plans, Stander edges past Taulupe Faletau to gain selection.
