SECOND-ROW:
- 4. Maro Itoje (England)
- 5. Tadhg Beirne (Wales)
Warburton said: “In Ireland Tadhg Beirne played so well again that it looks increasingly difficult to leave him out of a Lions starting team. Which in itself is going to create some problems, because I think Maro Itoje has to start.”
BACK-ROW:
- 6. Tom Curry (England)
- 7. Sam Underhill (England)
- 8. Taulupe Faletau (Wales)
Warburton said: “England have missed Underhill so badly in this tournament. He is the most destructive tackler in world rugby.”
