Even 'The Beast' knows the Lions are on to a good thing with Tadhg Furlong.
Elsewhere, it gets interesting as the six Telegraph scribes give their takes on those final two prop spots in the squad. Leinster and Ireland star Andrew Porter is in with a good shout of making his Lions squad, and he makes it into four of the selections.
It is noted, more than once, how Porter can cover both sides of the front row. He has done such for Leinster in recent years and had a starring role as a loosehead in underage rugby before the province got him to concentrate on tighthead.
Edinburgh and Scotland loosehead Rory Sutherland makes four of the six writers' picks while Zander Fagerson gets three mentions.
The wildcard picks come from Charles Richardson, who has English props in his Lions squad, including Joe Marler and Will Stuart.
