STUART HOGG
OUTSIDE BACK
UNION: Scotland
TEAM: Glasgow Warriors DOB: 24.06.92
HEIGHT: 1.83m
WEIGHT: 88kg
CAPS: 53 (Scotland)
LIONS RECORD: 2013, Australia (0 Test, 5 non-Test)
Despite being just 24 when the tour started, Stuart seems to have been a Scotland star for an age. Played ve matches in the 2013 series.
GEORGE NORTH
OUTSIDE BACK
UNION: Wales
TEAM: Northampton Saints DOB: 13.04.92
HEIGHT: 1.93m
WEIGHT: 109kg
CAPS: 69 (Wales)
LIONS RECORD: 2013, Australia (3 Test, 4 non-Test)
Rediscovered his form during the Six Nations just in time to secure a place on the Lions tour. Always a threat whenever he gets his hands on the ball.
JACK NOWELL
OUTSIDE BACK
UNION: England
TEAM: Exeter Chiefs
DOB: 11.04.93
HEIGHT: 1.80m
WEIGHT: 98kg
CAPS: 23 (England)
LIONS RECORD: Debut tour
The England wing has impressed both Eddie Jones and Warren Gatland with his all-round game and workrate. A true nisher, but exible enough to be a utility back.
TOMMY SEYMOUR
OUTSIDE BACK
UNION: Scotland
TEAM: Glasgow Warriors DOB: 01.07.88
HEIGHT: 1.83m
WEIGHT: 95kg
CAPS: 36 (Scotland)
LIONS RECORD: Debut tour
Born in Nashville, Tennessee, Scotland’s second Lion has crossed the line 16 times in
36 international appearances. All Blacks fans may remember his 2014 interception try.
ANTHONY WATSON
OUTSIDE BACK
UNION: England
TEAM: Bath
DOB: 26.02.94
HEIGHT: 1.88m
WEIGHT: 93kg
CAPS: 26 (England)
LIONS RECORD: Debut tour
A try every other Test shows how deadly Anthony is when it comes to scoring tries, but his solid defence and con dence under the high ball makes him a candidate for fullback too.
LIAM WILLIAMS
OUTSIDE BACK
UNION: Wales
TEAM: Scarlets
DOB: 09.04.91
HEIGHT: 1.88m
WEIGHT: 87kg
CAPS: 43 (Wales)
LIONS RECORD: Debut tour
As comfortable on the wing as at fullback, Liam’s pace in attack has caused problems for many, whether it’s for Wales or his Welsh regional side, the Scarlets.
