After three weeks of the Six Nations, JOE takes a look at what the make-up of the Lions team would be if it were to be picked tomorrow.

Always a contentious issue and given Ireland’s performances over the past two games, our representation is a lot less than we would have liked. But we have to pick on form and this is what we think would be our strongest XV based on the three weeks so far available to Warren Gatland and his management team.

Brian O’Driscoll may have lost the Irish captaincy, but we still think he would be a good shout to lead this group which compromises of five Welshmen, five Englishmen, four boys in green and a solitary Scot.

There were some tough decisions and close calls, but do let us know what you think of our choices
