Sir Ian McGeechan picks his Lions XV based ‘on current form’

The Legendary Sir Ian McGeechan has selected hi British and Irish Lions team based on current form for Sky Sports.

BACK-THREE:

  • 15. Stuart Hogg (Scotland) – He’s in outstanding form and he’s confident. He’s making fewer errors, he’s good under the high ball and I think against South Africa you need players who can break the game up.
  • 14. Louis Rees-Zammit (Wales)
  • 11.  Duhan van der Merwe (Scotland)

CENTRES:

  • 13. Chris Harris (Scotland) –  I think Slade is there or thereabouts, but I think Harris on form over the two games should be there at outside centre
  • 12. Owen Farrell (England) –  I would put him at inside centre because I think you also need a goal kicker in a Test team.
