The British & Irish Lions squad announcement is approaching, and coach Andy Farrell has several significant decisions to make. The fly-half position is a conundrum, with multiple contenders. The captaincy dilemma between Maro Itoje and Caelan Doris adds to the complexity. Farrell also needs to consider the squad size, potential surprise selections, the Irish influence, and the impact of players based abroad. The back-row options are abundant, presenting another tough choice. With the announcement on May 8, rugby fans await with bated breath.
