Warren Gatland has named a fantastic British and Irish Lions squad for this summer’s tour of South Africa.

One thing Gatland tends to get right is his selection. It was something I saw when he was Wasps coach and I was playing there, and we have also seen it with Wales and the Lions – he knows his players.

He understands their characteristics, their strengths and weaknesses, and he picks the right players for the right jobs.
