Donncha O’Callaghan will be the British and Irish Captain against the Southern Kings this Tuesday at Nelson Mandela Bay. Shane Williams has been named in the starting lineup and many believe this is a sign that he has not made his way into the test team. ‘

The Southern Kings are not a regular team and have been put together for this Lions tour and possibly will be added to the Super 14 which of course will become the Super 15.

15 Keith Earls (Ireland), 14 Shane Williams (Wales), 13 Riki Flutey (England), 12 Gordon D’Arcy (Ireland), 11 Luke Fitzgerald (Ireland), 10 James Hook (Wales), 9 Mike Blair (Scotland), 8 Andy Powell (Wales), 7 Joe Worsley (England), 6 Nathan Hines (Scotland), 5 Donncha O’Callaghan (Ireland, C), 4 Simon Shaw (England), 3 Euan Murray (Scotland), 2 Ross Ford (Scotland), 1 Andrew Sheridan (England).
