“You can’t pick Owen Farrell” – Andy Goode selects his Lions XV

HALFBACKS:

10. Dan Biggar (Wales), 9. Conor Murray (Ireland)

GOODE SAID: “I don’t think you can pick Owen Farrell on any form at all. If we’re going Test match animals, this is what Eddie Jones did, he picked what he thought was the right play whether they are playing well, in form, out of form, whatever, and that got England fifth place and our worst ever Six Nations. I couldn’t pick Owen Farrell because of that. Sexton got knocked out again at the weekend. I thought about going Sexton, but I have gone for Biggar at 10 and we’re not naming our bench but I would definitely go Finn Russell on the bench. “

DID YOU KNOW? Biggar won the BBC Cymru Sports Personality of the Year Award in 2015
