Squad named today and hardly surprising to see a very small Welsh contingent. I had hoped to see three, maybe four at a push. The fact that it’s only Jac Morgan and Tomos Williams speaks volumes.
Key dates:
20th June: warm up game versus Argentina
28th June: first tour game
19th July: first Test
26th July: second Test
2nd August: third Test
Wales' lowest post war total for a Lions tour.
