Very interesting! Slightly surprised they've only taken Farrell and Sexton as out-and-out number 10s, with Stuart Hogg the covering 10 from what Rob Howley was saying. I'm sure Jonny will be there at some point!

I really feel for Wood and Robshaw, but as you said, the competition for places was indeed ferocious!

I'm going for the Lions 2-1!

So, the squad has been announced and will be lead by Sam Warburton.

A few surprises in the squad in my opinion (notably the omission of Tom Wood - a great utility back-row forward) which includes 15 Welsh, 10 English, 8 Irish, and 3 Scots

Another championship is drawing to an end, and culminates in a day in front of the box tomorrow! I'm a nervous Englishman, and hoping for rather than expecting a win in Cardiff. I think the French will rout the Scots and Ireland will have too much for the Italians - but only just! Enjoy all!

Very hard fought win for England! I was very nervous until the last 15!!!

What has everyone made of the team selections for this weekend? 3 changes for England, and no less than 7 for France!
