Speaking at a Q&A in September 2020, Woodward made his selection, revealing that Warren Gatland would need to go with raw power to compete with South Africa at scrum time.
Woodward, who coached the Lions in 2005, is the latest pundit to make his selection with Brian O’Driscoll, Sir Ian McGeechan and Will Greenwood all making their predictions.
Here is who Woodward picked in his forward, including five England players.
