I'm with you on that. The All Blacks may still have better players but there are plenty of good lions players in all positions to take them on in an expansive game. Ten is the one position I'd be a bit concerned about but that might change by next summer

I'd be happy with a firing Sexton or Paddy Jackson frankly. I'm not sure Biggar remembers how to pass the ball and Farrell has never really known. Much as i like Ford as a rugby player I'm not sure we can afford to let a Savea run at him.

It's the scrum half where I think we will struggle to get the variety and accuracy to put pressure on NZ
Especially at pace

Webb is probably the front runner. He is already looking like a contender so fingers crossed for an injury free season. After him, Murray possibly, although I'm not a huge fan.
