Finn Russell
Marcus as the versatile option

Farrell talked a lot of guff about prendergast when he dropped crowley but I don't think his selection could be justified now

I like Fin a lot, and he's been good. But defense aside...Ford is just a better 10. I think it's criminal that he's not gone with the Lions, and this could be his chance.

I think he needs an injury, probably two. Agreed that he's a classy, classy player and it is criminal that he's never gone eith the Lions, but he wasn't in great form before his injury and one cameo against a beaten (and let's face it, pretty average) Welsh side is not going to be enough. Being third choice for your country puts you behind the 8 ball when it comes to Lions selection, especially when you can only play one position.

He's going to end up being the best player never to go on a Lions tour.

Crowley does a theo dan ,probably both should be in bolters thread

Sexton appointed as a coach, so expect Farrell, Biggar and Crowley as the 10s. Tour is cancelled as far as I’m concerned.

You mean prendergast? But not an appointment I'm overly happy with either
