00:06
I think there are two things that you couldn't query in Morrow.
00:09
I think he's been outstanding, he's good in the Six Nations, he's been even better since then,
00:15
he's in a rich vein of form, and he's going to be in the test team.
00:19
He's one of the first names down, so they're first of all the hallmarks that are needed in any Lions captain.
00:25
this is a guy who I think all players
00:28
across the British and Irish Isles
00:31
look at
00:32
and just admire as a rugby player
00:33
as a performer
00:34
time and time again
00:36
at the top level

if not nine and ten
00:43
more recently
00:44
out of ten performances
00:45
time and time again
00:49
I think a players who look at Mwriting
00:50
this guy
00:51
the way he is as a player
00:52
the way he is as a rugby athlete
