The latest episode of The Rugby Pod saw Andy Goode pick his Lions XV with Owen Farrell and Tom Curry both missing out on selection.
ANDY GOODE: MY LIONS TEST XV
BACK-THREE:
15. Stuart Hogg (Scotland); 14. George North (Wales), 11. Duhan van der Merwe (Scotland)
GOODE SAID: ” I have gone George North and Duhan van der Merwe. North was close to going in the centres with Henshaw but I love Jonathan Davies. He is a great player.”
DID YOU KNOW? Hogg’s father, John, played as a championship winning full-back for Hawick before becoming a rugby referee
CENTRES:
13. Jonathan Davies (Wales), 12. Robbie Henshaw (Ireland)
GOODE SAID: “My centre pairing, and again you can’t put someone like Manu Tuilagi in as he has not played yet, on form and on what we are going to face, I am going Robbie Henshaw and Jonathan Davies.”
DID YOU KNOW? His family has a lot of musical talent, with Henshaw himself playing the accordion, fiddle, guitar and piano
