Ex-England captain Lewis Moody selects his British and Irish Lions XV

Why class act Dan Cole is the captain who can make the Lions roar Down Under

15 Leigh Halfpenny (Wales) Halfpenny has been Mr Consistent – even across Wales' run of bad results he stood out for his solidity. He is good under the high ball and has the all-round game in attack and defence. Alex Goode has played well, so has Stuart Hogg for Scotland – all three are making a good case to start ahead of Rob Kearney and that's without even considering Ben Foden. That's the thing about the Lions – there will be some high-quality players who don't even make the squad, let alone the Test side. I feel Halfpenny is the most gifted and his kicking swings it – it's important to have two kickers in the XV. (GETTY IMAGES)
