Clive’s FIVE Lions who roared on tour

SAM WARBURTON

He was always my nominated captain from this time last year and once he was fully fit again proved what a sensational player he is. But much more than that, he is a special leader on and off the field. It’s impossible for the opposition and their media to target him. Warburton is one of the all-time great Lions for me.

MARO ITOJE

A sensational rugby talent. Probably the man of the match in the second Test and the efforts of Itoje (right) yesterday helped keep heads above water.

JONATHAN DAVIES

Played every minute of all three Tests and was world class, as he was in Australia four years ago. He was always a starter for me, even early last season when his form had dipped. Superb in attack and defence with an underrated kicking game. 4

TADHG FURLONG

It was extremely physical up front and Furlong was immense in all three Tests. Strong scrummager but mobile and strong in the loose with good skills too.

SEAN O’BRIEN

I was full of admiration for the way O’Brien always fronted up and took them on with an almost reckless regard for his own safety.
