Revamped Lions side looks good to go
Clive Woodward has made many welcome changes to the test side that was defeated by the All Blacks last Saturday. Wilkinson returns to fly-half with Henson and Thomas linking up in the centre. A brave choice from Sir Clive to solve the outside centre conundrum, lets hope Thomas is up to it. Shane Williams finally gets a run out at 11 with Robinson on the opposite wing and Lewsey at full back. A renewed back row consisting of Easterby, Moody and Jones should add that element of youthfulness so lacking at the breakdown in the first test. Another key area for the Lions will be the lineouts, lets hope the addition of O'Callaghan and Thompson to the front five will ease the problems. If any Lions XV can do it, I reckon this team can.
