Appearing on The Tap And Go podcast, Ugo Monye has picked his Lions XV to face the Springboks in 2021, but admitted it’s sure to change before the first Test in Johannesburg next July.
BACK-THREE
15. Stuart Hogg (Scotland): “I’m struggling. Hogg was really unlucky in 2017, but Liam Williams is a hell of a player too. Good luck to Warren Gatland picking between those two.”
14. Jonny May (England): “His development has been crazy. He’s now probably got one of the most well-rounded games in world rugby for a wing.”
11. Josh Adams (Wales): “The top try-scorer at the last World Cup. It’s simple, he scores tries.”
CENTRES
13. Garry Ringrose: “He’s an underrated defender who reads the game really well.”
12. Manu Tuilagi: “It has to be him. If Manu does what Manu does, I think him and Ringrose could link up really well.”
