Another interesting point to note is his selection of Jack Conan in the starting team. Conan only started one Six Nations game for Ireland, having been usurped by Peter O'Mahony for a starting spot, but he did make big impacts off the bench, and Gatland is clearly a fan.
"I have gone with an all-Ireland back row, but probably not what most people might expect. Peter O’Mahony has had a good Six Nations and is unlucky to miss out but I have gone with an all-Leinster combination.
"I have a lot of time for Jack. He doesn’t make many mistakes and I like the balance," he said.
