    Lions squad
    Full-backs: I Balshaw (Bath and England), M Perry (Bath and England).

    Wings: B Cohen (Northampton and England), D James (Llanelli and Wales), D Luger (Saracens and England), J Robinson (Sale and England).

    Centres: M Catt (Bath and England), W Greenwood (Harlequins and England), R Henderson (Wasps and Ireland), B O'Driscoll (Blackrock College and Ireland), M Taylor (Swansea and Wales).

    Fly-halves: N Jenkins (Cardiff and Wales), R O'Gara (Cork Constitution and Ireland), J Wilkinson (Newcastle and England).

    Scrum-halves: M Dawson (Northampton and England), A Healey (Leicester and England), R Howley (Cardiff and Wales).

    Props: J Leonard (Harlequins and England), D Morris (Swansea and Wales), T Smith (Brive and Scotland), P Vickery (Gloucester and England), D Young (Cardiff and Wales).

    Hookers: P Greening (Wasps and England), R McBryde (Llanelli and Wales), K Wood (Harlequins and Ireland).

    Locks: J Davidson (Castres and Ireland), D Grew**** (Saracens and England), M Johnson (Leicester and England, capt), S Murray (Saracens and Scotland), M O'Kelly (St Mary's College and Ireland).

    A bit dissapointing that despite Ireland's improvement in the past 14-16 mnths, that only 6 men (Keith Wood, Brian O'Driscoll, Ronan O’Gara, Rob Henderson, Jeremy Davidson and Malcolm O'Kelly ) out of 37 are Irish.

    Not too surprising it would have been nice to see Denis Hickey get in. The injury really set him back because he would have been a useful addition to Lions squad.

    Six players is still an improvement on last tours four.

    Still pretty disappointing given the performances some of the backs made in the 6N & HCup games... pity the Scots though, 3!

    A lot of the Lions selectors were over for the Munster versus an all ireland selection last week and Hickey had a fairly bad game.

    There is still a chance. as far as I know he has been asked to stay in training during the tour just incase other fellows suffer injuries, which they will.
