reports coming out that Bowe is out of the tour

Well I'm hardly impartial but I would take Zebo. He's had a fantastic year when fit, and for the pure sake of style, he needs to be brought. Christian Wade is a man I couldn't complain about being brought. As long as its somebody fast black and cool, its fine. The number of Irishmen is getting worryingly small. If Sextons out, I'd love to see Madigan brought. Only if he gets the Barnett going though.
Gutted for Bowe though, considering he had to fight his way back from injury all season for this to happen.

Don't you dare take Wade Gats! He needs to secure his spot with England, this tour is his chance to shine.
 
We are all, of course, overlooking the obvious candidate:

Good idea and would not let them down but he has just had an operation and, in any case, we will not release him as we need him back at training for next season as we are so short of anything like top class players!!
 
This Lions tour is certainly not without drama, Tommy is due to have surgery but still could feature!

He's the miracle man.

I was thinking this too, as long as it's only one of the carpal bones(not the scaphoid) they can get in there and do some carpentry it should heal fairly quickly and it shouldn't have too much of an impact on his game.

Tommy Bowe having op today, may only be out 2 weeks, depends on surgery. Gatland waiting to see how op goes b4 any decision made #rterugby

Quick treatment anyway.
 
This is really good news... I assume that with the first international being in two weeks he won't feature (as I reckon they'll give him a run-out somewhere first) but would be very happy if he is able to feature in the final two tests.
