The Alternative British and Irish Lions XV

Warren Gatland has announced a 41-man squad for the British and Irish Lions tour to New Zealand later this year.

Such is the strength-in-depth of rugby in Britain and Ireland, despite 41 men being selected, there were still plenty of players who didn’t make the squad who could easily have been included.

We’ve made a team of players who didn’t make the plane, how do you think this XV would fare in a competitive match?
