They reckon around England will have about 2 more travellers than the welsh...

Well, If Gatland & Co. are going to take 4 bottles of scotch, may I recommend Arran Malt, Cask Islay, Glen Moray and Inchmoan. All of these are of course, single malt whiskeys. :ayatollah:

Surprised we're not picking anyone from the Swansea area.

You may recommend all you want but unless Jimmy the Jock confirms then we won't rush out to purchase them. Being Scottish he is naturally an expert. Mind, from what I understand, he's yet to taste any whisky he doesn't approve of. Same goes for all ales, wines and spirits he's sampled to excess.

12 Welshmen I make it, but a lot of the "in the know" stories about who was going and who wasn't were wrong.

Only 2 scotch then, shows what i know
Re: British & Irish Lions
I got no interest in rugby but I am interested in facts and figures.
So, can someone explain to me why they need to take a squad of 41 players?
Surely a squad of 30 players would be enough, 2 for each position, and a few on stand by incase of injuries.
Re: British & Irish Lions
Scotland are on the face of it unlucky but that game against England was a complete non-performance. It was their biggest game in years and they didn't show up. Coaches maybe thought they couldn't risk that.

I'd prefer less welsh were picked and it didn't feel like Welsh rugby proving themselves out there rather than a joint effort.
The squad is announced at noon.
BBC comments is full of flag waving little Englanders, Biggar and Moriarty might be fortunate but past them I can't see how the others could be left out. You have to start by picking the most talented players and then try and build around that.

I heard on the radio on average 10 players get their tour ended by injury.
And it works out to around a game every 3 months in the month of the tour. It is absolutely brutal.
The size of this squad is bigger than usual apparently so 41 may be a bit OTT.

It has given me a headache just reading the comments on that one article. The one with 600+ comments and rapidly rising.

I don't think the Scots should be included , as most of their supportors want independence ,hate allegiances and they are following that fish lady, who is slowly becoming a dictator .
Re: British & Irish Lions
The Western Mail / Echo boys are having a wankfest at the prospect of the tour.
Personally I don't care how the Eggers do. Roll on the Football season in August.
C'mon City :ayatollah:
