“I was surprised by the decision to leave him out, but also understood why Warren Gatland made the call.
“A hungry George with a point to prove could help the Lions back into the series.
“So with that in mind, I would bring him in on the right wing in place of Watson in what is a marginal call.”
“In the pack, Maro Itoje also has to start for me.
“There is so much strength there, but I think his impact off the bench after replacing Alun Wyn Jones was too much to ignore.
“So for me, it’s George and Maro in for Wellington and Alun Wyn and Anthony out.”
