Rugby Union

The announcement of the new British & Irish Lions team has created a stir in rugby circles due to its blend of surprising picks along with several well-known players missing from the squad, which has sparked much debate among fans and experts. The upcoming tour creates pressure for head coach Andy Farrell, who has made daring choices that will strongly influence the team's future results.

If the England Rugby Union Squad still want to win the world cup in Japan this year, 2019 then one ingredient is still missing in the current magic mix – At scrum-half.

Why? Eddie Jones has mixed around the back line and forwards to a great extend to rightly test which combinations will work best, sometimes courageously leaving out some big names.
