Who has been the British & Irish Lions best and worst players in South Africa so far? RUCK ranks the performances of the most impressive and most underwhelming players.
BEST PLAYERS:
#3. Maro Itoje (England)
Second-row might be the first position where there something close to a nailed-on selection – with Itoje’s performance against the Lions in Johannesburg offering a preview of the nuisance he could be to the Springboks come July 24.
#2. Hamish Watson (Scotland)
The Scotland flanker has carried well above his weight on the tour so far – making any pre-tour criticisms that he wasn’t big enough to make an impression in South Africa look daft.
