2013 Lions Squad Announcement - Live updates & Discussion
I'm at work with no access to TV/Radio for the big annoucement. I'd be gretful if some of my 606v2 brethern could provide updates as names are announced for the tour.
Please don't turn this into a debate about who should/shouldn't be on tour until after all the names are up, to keep the page clean for others to see the names of the sqaud.
Thanking you in advance

Actually, I have a client meeting at 11am every Tuesday. And this week the client has decided to visit us instead of dialling in so my manager is in (normally she works from home Tuesdays) so we'll be in a meeting room

This just in.
The Lions tour has been cancelled.
According to reports Gatland can't make up his mind and asked for an extension.

Morning tea lady has been and long gone, LB.
I tried sending out for a half-cal, decaf, skinny milk, low-froth, cappuccino, but I only got funny looks and dark mutterings....
Some people are just soooooo repressed, doncha' think?

It's a real shame, mate.
Do they have a 'magazine trolley lady' or has NHS/OHS banned them in fear of paper cuts?

Magazine Man is alive and kicking and prowls the ward corridors and even gives credit if he figures you're here for a while.

Re: 2013 Lions Squad Announcement - Live updates & Discussion
A few tidbits on stats whilst we're waiting.
A look at the Amlin Opta Index shows who are the top backs and forwards in the European comps this season.
Of the backs, Alex Cuthbert is 4th best with Conor Murray and Simon Zebo making the top 10 in the Opta index.
In the forwards, surprising to some, Jamie Heaslip is No 1, with Steffon Armitage and Peter O'Mahony the only other potential Lions candidates who feature.

Re: 2013 Lions Squad Announcement - Live updates & Discussion
Ok how best to do this.
Do they run names in alpabetical order and then by position or in clumps of backs and forwards?

Word is that we will hear the names of the backs first - in alphabetical order - then the forwards with the identity of the captain following that
