“I did a bit of a mix and match” – Danny Care selects SEVEN England stars in his Lions XV


The latest episode of the  BBC’s Rugby Union Weekly line-up saw England legend Danny Care select his Lions XV with
 six Englishmen making his team.

Care has not played international rugby since being replaced against Japan in the 2018 autumn internationals with his face no longer fitting with England head coach Eddie Jones.

But, at 34, Care is playing as well as ever and is comfortably the form scrum-half in the Premiership.

despite being linked with a shock call-up, the playmaker has had a go at picking his starting XV:
